In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, tamari, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, green onions, rice vinegar, and salt. Mix well until fully combined.
Prepare your workspace by having a small bowl of water and the gluten-free dumpling wrappers ready.
Take one dumpling wrapper and place it on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the pork filling in the center of the wrapper.
Dip your finger in water and wet the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges together to seal, pleating as desired to create a traditional dumpling shape. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Arrange the dumplings in the skillet, flat side down. You may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.
Carefully add 1/4 cup of water to the skillet, then immediately cover with a lid to trap the steam.
Allow the dumplings to steam for about 5 minutes, or until the water has evaporated.
Remove the lid and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to re-crisp the bottoms.
Transfer the cooked dumplings to a plate and repeat with the remaining dumplings.
Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce, such as more tamari or a ginger-soy dip.
