Nick DiGiovanni 0:08
And especially if you're a subscriber, you might want to stick around and see what's inside the fortune. And real quick, I have some very exciting news. I've been talking about this for over a year now, and my cookbook preorder is open starting right now. Please go get yourself a copy. In this book is everything you've all been asking for. Every comment, every DM, every recipe you ask me for on the street, it's all in here. And one day Gordon go, hi, you're so annoying. Okay, okay, I write stuff for you. Just go away, go away. I've worked so hard over the past year on this book for all of you.

If you go buy a book right now, in addition to getting this amazing cookbook, you will see 10 people a nice warm meal.
Uncle Roger 0:50
First step, we're going to make our dough.
Nick DiGiovanni 0:51
To begin, we're going to dump down a bunch of flour in the center of our work surface. Lots and lots of flour.
Uncle Roger 0:56
So much white powder. Does this look familiar to you, Uncle Nick? Is this your Saturday night?
Nick DiGiovanni 1:01
To start this out, we're gonna make a nice giant well in the middle of the flour. And in this bowl, we have boiling water.
Uncle Roger 1:06
Pinch of salt. Uncle Nick, I think your salt pan very cool, but it too many different type. Pumpkin spice, Spanish rosemary, flaky pink roasted garlic. Haiya, this the whitest thing Uncle Roger ever see. MSG haiya. You're putting pumpkin spice salt? Yeah, it's the fall season. We're gonna mix it all in.
Nick DiGiovanni 1:26
When we're doing something like this or making pasta dough, we have to make sure that the well on the outside doesn't break or all the water leaks out and it's a huge mess. If the water leak out, you up. Feel how nice that is.
Uncle Roger 1:35
Why are you stroking my hand more than the dough? I don't know Uncle Roger feeling lonely today. Who need woman? Just stay single and fondle your flower. The next step, we have to flower our work surface. See the technique. What technique? You just sprinkle on counter.
Nick DiGiovanni 1:51
Uncle Nick, good work. So the next step is really just to shape out this dough ball. Make sure that it's perfectly sort of ready to be rolled out.
Uncle Roger 1:58
Uncle Nick, stop spanking everything. This dough ball not your girlfriend. Now that our dough ball ready to roll, we get the world's biggest rolling pin.

How do they prepare and mix the dumpling dough step-by-step?

Uncle Roger 2:09
Don't let my mom see this. She gonna beat me up with this.
Nick DiGiovanni 2:11
The next step here is to roll out our dough ball to get it nice and thin. This dumpling has to be at least 150 pounds to get the world record, and that means we need a lot of dough.
Uncle Roger 2:19
Uncle Roger can't wait to show niece and nephew what I put in my filling. Got special ingredient. Hiya, Uncle Nick, this gonna take forever. Go to the other side, better for library.
Nick DiGiovanni 2:28
Oh my gosh, it's working. Getting to roll out a piece of dough this big is not easy. Mmm, feel nice.
Guinness World Records representative 2:33
This is the official Guinness World Record for the largest edible single pierogi dumpling. Guinness World Record, do they always make you dress like you train conductor? For the purposes of this attempt, the ingredients must include flour, eggs, and a filling with at least two ingredients. That's two? That's too easy, Nephew Andy. Uncle Roger used way more than two. The dumpling has to be prepared in a traditional manner and formed into a semi-circular shape. Okay, easy. No problem. And as with every Guinness World Records title, the food has to be distributed for human consumption afterwards. Does this have to be edible, Nephew Andy? It does.
Uncle Roger 3:06
Technically, every food edible. It's just some food will give you diarrhea.
Guinness World Records representative 3:10
Well, there's a food safety expert, Dennis, who's on site to make sure this dumpling will be safe to eat.
Nick DiGiovanni 3:14
Once our dough is all rolled out, I'm gonna set that off to the side. And at this point, we have to layer down our whole base of our steamer.
Uncle Roger 3:20
We have to build special custom steamer because this dumpling's so big, this regular steamer like this not gonna work.
