In Chinese tea culture, semi-oxidised oolong teas are collectively grouped as qīngchá (Chinese: 清茶; literally "clear tea"). Oolong has a taste more akin to green tea than to black tea: it has neither the rosy, sweet aroma of black tea nor the stridently grassy vegetal notes that typify green tea. It is commonly brewed to be strong, with the bitterness leaving a sweet aftertaste. Several subvarieties of oolong, including those produced in the Wuyi Mountains of northern Fujian and in the central mountains of Taiwan, are among the most famous Chinese teas.

- Brew a cup of Oolong tea with 5 grams of tea leaves. Reserve 40 ml tea drink and 2/3 tablespoon of brewed tea leaves. Set aside for later use.
- Chop the tea leaves very fine and mix with the ingredients for the filling. Cover and store in the fridge.
- Sift the flour in a mixing bowl, pour in the boiled Oolong tea (use a microwave to warm up if it is cold), use the chopsticks to stir, then add 25 ml cold water in 2-3 times until a smooth and soft (like your earlobe) dough forms.
- Cover with a plastic wrapper and let stand for 30 minutes. Portion the dough into 10-11, each about 16 grams.Place the portioned dough on a lightly floured board, press flat and roll out thinly with a rolling pin, place a tablespoon of filling on it, roll up and form into a roll like a pencil. Again roll it into a circle about 3-4 cm in diameter. Let stand for 30 minutes.
- Heat a frying-pan wok over a medium flame. Put the pancake into the pan and cook it until golden brown at the both sides.

Oh those are so cute, you have made a recipe once again that would be easy for me to follow visually...are these featured in dim sum? I have eaten at places in Dallas, but do not remember what our choices were, they seem like something we might have had, and look yummy!
Everyone's doing green tea this green tea that; its nice to see a change!
Interesting recipe! I've never heard of this before.
Wow..fabulous and tempting dear...Pass that bowl to me...

When I first saw the name, I thought it's a bread roll. But when I came to the site, hah! It's a dumpling!!
Great!! I will use this method to make guotie next time.
Something new to me..looks fab,nice rolls...
I like Oolong tea but I never thought about adding it to dumpling dough! It is very interesting and new idea to me! It looks delicious! Thanks for sharing a innovative idea!
i bet it must be super flavorful with tea infused into the dumpling!
So innovative..I love oolong tea, but never thought of making something like this with that :-)

Wow, very unique savory treats with oolong tea! I would love to try these!
This is interesting and looks new to me! Mmmm, a tinge of tea aroma, nice!
Angie,
How do you do it?! Everything you make here always looks incredible.
I've never seen anything quite like that. It looks wicked good! I need to try it, I love the concept.
this is a complete new recipe for me, the dough the ingredients.. But it looks so appetizing, I like this kind of food, I bookmarked it to try.
thanks my friend for sharing
wow love these what a neat idea to add tea to the dough
Angie,
Cute snail shaped dumplings! Did you add some water in the frying pan like we usually do when making potsticker?
Wow these look delicious..new recipe to me..:)
You always come up with the most amazing things over here! This is fantastic. What a great way to incorporated tea into your recipe!
Angie, this looks totally delish. Do you think it would be okay to sub ground shrimp for the meat? I'm pescatarian that's why.
I'm going to test this. Thanks!
I can always count on learning something new when I come here - another winner.
You are very creative, this look really refreshing!
Thank you my friends for taking time to drop by!
Tuty: No, I didn't drizzle water into the roll while pan-frying.
Angie, you make the tea look amazing in this recipe! I should start trying tea in some recipes too. Hopefully, it turns out great! haha... Btw, I prefer 'xiang pien' than 'Oolong'! Thanks so much for sharing. Have a great day!
This is interesting, Angie. Very creative!
Angie, you are very creative to add oolong tea into the dough! I have to call these a healthier dimsum. They look so cute and delicious. I would love to try them. By the way, I'm amazed at how you come out with 1g of salt and 1g of chicken powder. My weighing scale can't do that.
Another great recipe from you! I don't mind having few of these rolling in my rumbling tummy now!!
Tea leaves in the dough? That sounds so interesting!
This recipe is a winner!! I absolutely love the flavours!
Oh, they look moist and delicious! I haven't tried to make any rolls with oolong teas. Very creative and tempting!
Wow!! so mouthwatering....nice clicks too
Delicious looking tea rolls!
Wow, looks wonderful, thats an interesting recipe, never had them before' looks toothsome.
Mary: Mine can do 0.1g. Cool..huh? ;-)You can use 1/5 tsp instead.
Looks really, really delicious. I can just imagine eating the rolls with my favourite chilli sauce. Yum! Yum! ...drools....!
Never had anything like that.. really good.
This looks incredibly tasty... I've got a party coming up and I'd love to include these.
superbe réalisation, bravo
bonne soirée
At first, I thought the twirls looks like cinnamon rolls but then I saw the savory filling. I would love to try some.
Wow....oolong tea in the dough and filling. Looks and sounds delicious! The Wuyi Mountain teas are really nice.
Another very interesting dough recipe. I have never tried oolong tea, so I will have to see if I can get some. The filling sounds delicious.
Angie, what I wouldn't give to try these. They look amazing!
Interesting recipe and I don't think I've ever eaten this before. At first I thought it was bread .. and then I saw the pictures. Looks yum
What a delicious recipe!
Angie, this looks absolutely delicious. You know how I love dumpling related food!!:)
I am so impressed with the recipe and execution! It looks totally authentic and delicious to boot; I'm gonna have to ask my bro about it, he lives in Singapour and travels to China on a regular basis and even learned Chinese!
Je vais voir si je vais trouver du thé oolong.
Ces petits rouleaux farcis semblent délicieux.
A bientôt.
What should be the temperature of the tea before adding to the flour? steaming hot or warm. This recipe is too interesting not to try out..
The Experimental Cook: Use it soon after you made it, so it's hot, quite hot.
Yum, I have not tried this dimsum but sure it's delish.
Awesome take on Asian dumplings. I will have to give this recipe a try. I am glad I found your page.
Wow, this looks amazing and so unique.
Love Oolong tea but in a roll! Such a unique recipe and a must try!
Hi Angie,
These rolls look so good. I'm a big fan of pot stickers and I bet these taste even better.
This looks absolutely delicious! I have so many "must try" recipes from your site, but this is at the top of the list.
Hi, congratulations for your blog and your recipes. At my website featured recipes accompanying the tea and I'd like your permission to translate and publish the photos and recipe rolls oolong tea.
Of course indicating that it's yours.
A greeting from Spain
