Step 1
Mince 2 scallion stalks and garlic. Mix ground pork with minced scallion, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and 0.5 tbsp sesame oil until just combined.
Step 2
Spoon 1 tbsp filling into each dumpling wrapper, wet the edges, fold in half, then pinch corners together to seal. Set aside.
Step 3
Bring broth to a boil in a large pot over high heat, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Gently slide dumplings into boiling broth. Once they float and simmer 2 minutes more, they're done, roughly 4 minutes total.
Step 5
Slice remaining scallion greens. Drizzle soup with remaining 0.5 tbsp sesame oil and 0.5 tbsp soy sauce.
Step 6
Ladle into bowls, top with sliced scallion greens, and serve hot.
