Add minced ginger and soy sauce, and stir evenly in the same direction of 3;
5.
Add clean water several times in small amounts, stirring vigorously in the same direction as 3 and 4 each time, and control the amount of water depending on the meat. I added about 100g.
6.
Stir until the meat filling absorbs enough water and becomes gluten, that is, it is a bit hard to stir, and the meat filling looks moist;
7.
Wash the shepherd's purse, dry it, and chop finely (shepherd's purse contains oxalic acid, so you can blanch it before cutting, I didn't blanch it, I want the original taste);
8.
Wash the chives, control the moisture, and chop finely;

Make the dough and make the dough (you can make the noodles in advance, and add a little salt when making the noodles to prevent the dumplings from sticking; the made dough should be covered with a damp cloth and the noodles will be longer. If you knead a few times in the middle, it will Get very good quality dumpling noodles);
14.
Apply the medicine and roll the skin. Whether the skin is thin and the stuffing is big, it depends on experience and craftsmanship;
15.
Making dumplings, what kind of dumplings are what you like and what you are accustomed to. However, this kind of dumplings with a little soup is best not to knead the dumplings. The skin and fillings of the kneading dumplings are tightly bound, lacking gaps, and often cannot taste the "soup" feeling. This kind of crooked moon dumplings or eyebrow dumplings are good.

Cook the dumplings in the three-point water method.
