The Ultimate Pot Sticker Showdown: A Journalist’s Quest to Find the Perfect Cooking Method for Frozen Stickers

I decided to test different cooking methods for frozen stickers to determine which one produced the best results. As a journalist, I wanted to share my hands-on experience with you all. In this exclusive story for Business Insider subscribers, I’ll be sharing my detailed findings on cooking frozen stickers using my oven, stovetop, and microwave.

When making a large batch of frozen stickers, the oven seemed like the most practical option. However, nothing compares to the crispy and hot fried stickers that can only be achieved on the stovetop. In this experiment, I tested each method and analyzed the results to determine which one produced the best outcome.

The global frozen food industry is estimated to be close to $3 billion in 2023, and my family definitely contributed to that. Frozen appetizers, meals and sides are convenient options to have on hand for quick weeknight dinners. One of our favorite frozen treats is pot stickers, so I decided to test different cooking methods to see which one produced the best results.
