  1. Size

    • Gyoza are smaller than Potstickers. 

  2. Skin

    • Potsticker skin is thicker, doughier and has crimped edges.

    • Gyoza skin is whiter, thinner and pointed at the ends. 

  3. Filling

    • Gyoza filling includes vegetables, is spread throughout the dumpling and has a ginger flavor profile.
