Ramp Pockets (Ramp 盒子)

I found some ramps when hiking (Northeast USA) and thought that they tasted a lot like Chinese chives (韭菜). I picked them and made my favorite Chinese chive dish - Chive Pockets (韭菜盒子).

They were absolutely incredible - like chive pockets but with a strong onion/garlic flavor.

TL;DR Recipe

Filling:

  1. Separate ramp stems from ramp leaves
  2. Mince ramp stems
  3. Sauté the ramp stems till aromatic
  4. Mix sautéd stems, julienned leaves, soaked vermicelli, and scrambled eggs
  5. Season to taste (I used dried scallops and a Korean snow crab sauce - Hong Yeong Ui Snow Crab White Sauce)

Dough: basic ~50-60% hydration hot water dough
