      Yield: 1 Batch
 
      1 c  Water
  1 1/4 c  Flour
      5    Water chestnuts
    1/2 bn Parsley
      1 oz Lean raw ham
      6 oz Shrimp
      1 pn Salt
    1/2 ts Sugar
      4 tb Sesame oil
      8 tb Soy sauce
 
  Bring water to a boil. Sift flour into a bowl, and stir in the
  boiling water, and make a pliable dough. Shape into a roll 1-1/4"
  thick and leave to rest covered by a cloth for an hour. Drain the
  water chestnuts and cut into very small pieces. Wash and pat dry the
  parsley. Remove the coarse stem and chop the leaves finely. Chop ham
  and shrimp. Mix all ingredients and cut into balls the size of a
  walnut.  Chill dough and roll each ball out into a circle.  Place
  stuffing into each circle and press the edges together to form a
  small pouch. In large pan bring 2" of water to a boil. Oil a plate
  and put pouches on it and set it supported by 2 tea cups in the pan
  of boiling water, so pouches can steam for 10 minutes covered.
  Mix in soy and sesame to make dipping sauce.
