A bunch of chubby dumplings are waiting to be cooked
Tips:
1. When mixing the noodles, put a little salt in the flour so that the noodles will be more gluten and not easy to break when cooking, but do not put too much salt and it will not taste good, just use your thumb and forefinger to pinch a little bit Just put it in the noodles.
2. Generally speaking, the ratio of flour to water is about 2:1. If you like to eat harder dumpling wrappers, you can put less water.
3. Pork can eat water better, but if you mix cabbage directly with meat and salt, the cabbage will produce a lot of water, and the water will not be absorbed by the meat, so you must first squeeze the water in the cabbage into the meat Stir the inside until the water is completely absorbed by the meat, then stir the cabbage with oil to protect the cabbage with a layer of oil film, and then mix it with the meat and seasonings when the bag is ready, the cabbage will no longer be watered. Otherwise, the dumplings are filled with a lot of soup, which is not easy to pack.
4. Do not hesitate to stir the meat in one direction so that the cooked dumplings will not fall apart.
5. Adjusting the filling and adding a little sugar can improve the freshness, so that a little bit will not make the filling sweet.
