How to make dumpling noodles soft and delicious

Dumplings are delicious because of their filling and dough. The dumpling skin is more important than the dumpling filling when eating dumplings. The dumpling skin must be chewy and not easy to break. When choosing the flour material, you must choose good flour. Some people go back and buy some machine-made dumpling skins for convenience. Such dumpling skins are actually unhygienic and easy to break. The following article will tell you how to make the dumpling skin soft and easy to eat.

Ingredients: 500g flour, 45 degrees warm water, 2g salt, 4g sugar, dumpling fillings: 300g pork, 1 onion, 1 egg, 3g salt, a little sesame oil, a little soy sauce

practice:

1. Pour the flour into a large bowl, add salt, sugar, and warm water, stir into large snowflakes, and then knead into a smooth dough. 2. Cover the kneaded dough with plastic wrap and let it rise at room temperature for about 20 minutes.

2. . While the dough is resting, make the dumpling filling. Wash and chop the pork, put it in a bowl, add salt, sesame oil, and a little soy sauce, stir well and marinate for a while

3. Wash and chop the onion, pour the chopped onion into the minced meat, and crack in an egg

4. Stir well and mix it before wrapping to prevent the filling from leaking water. Alternatively, put the prepared filling in the refrigerator for a while so that it will not leak water.

5. Sprinkle some dry flour on the chopping board, take out the dough, knead it into long strips, cut it into uniform-sized dough pieces, and roll it into dumpling wrappers that are slightly thicker in the middle and thinner on the sides.

6. I'm not really good at rolling the dumpling wrappers, and they're not round enough. I need more practice to wrap the fillings in them. As for the dumpling wrapping techniques, each has its own characteristics. As long as you can wrap the fillings and use the technique that feels comfortable and fast, that's fine.

7. The dumplings are plump and you can cook them however you like. Fry, steam, deep-fry or boil them according to your preference. Let’s try some hot pot dumplings first.

8. Tips for making dough:

1: Knead the dough with warm water. The dough kneaded with warm water is softer.

2. Add a little salt and sugar to the flour (500 grams of flour plus 2 grams of salt and 4 grams of sugar)

3: Let the kneaded dough stand for about 20 minutes and let the sugar rise. Cover it with plastic wrap or a clean damp cloth to prevent the dough from drying out and to keep it soft.

4: Take out the fermented dough and knead it once or twice so that the dumpling skin will be chewy and elastic.
