How to make meat swallow

Our great China is vast and rich in resources, and every place has its own cuisine. But if you stay at home for a long time, it is difficult to eat it. Is this a pity? It doesn't matter, if you can master how to make them yourself, all problems will be solved. Now, please follow me to learn how to make meat dumplings.

1. Take out a stack of dried bird's nest skin and cut it in half in the middle

2.1212 Take half of it. This "fold" of bird's nest skin is folded in three. Cut it twice along the fold as shown in the right picture. Cut the dried bird's nest skin into the size of wonton skin.

3.2121Use the same cutting method to cut the dried bird's nest skins you need into stacks. Unused dried bird's nest skin, seal it and put it back in the refrigerator

4. Take clean gauze, wet it with water and set aside. The cloth needs to be quite wet, but not so wet that water will drip out when you hold it in your hand.

5. Place the cut bird's nest skins on the chopping board piece by piece, making sure they do not overlap.

6.1 If the cloth is not wet enough to stick to the dry bird's nest skin, use a spray bottle to spray water on the wet cloth so that the wet cloth can stick to the dry bird's nest skin and allow the dry bird's nest skin to fully absorb the water.

7.2 Spread the wet gauze just prepared on the dry bird skin

8.1 Peel the skin first, flatten it with a kitchen knife, and then chop it. But don't chop it into mud.

9.2 I bought water chestnuts

10. Prepare the meat filling: minced pork, chopped green onions, an egg

11. Add the chopped water chestnuts. If you are particular, you may also add fish and shrimp.

12. The seasonings are salt, chicken essence, dark soy sauce and cooking wine. Mix them all together and it will be the meat filling.

13. After processing the meat filling, look back at the bird's nest skin. After being moistened by the wet cloth, the bird's nest skin has become soft.

14. Take a piece of bird's nest skin and put the meat filling on it

15. Wrap it like wontons

16. The meat swallow is ready

17. The way to wrap meat dumplings is very similar to wontons, but they cannot be put into the pot like wontons! Put the wrapped meat swallow on the steaming grate

18. Boil water in a pot. When the water boils, put the grate into the pot and start steaming. When it is 80% cooked, you can take it out.

19. Spread out the steamed meat bird’s nest and let it cool. At this step, the meat dumpling is considered to be processed. Put the cooled meat dumplings in the refrigerator and take them out whenever you want to eat them. The cooking method is the same as wontons. Put the meat dumplings in a pot of boiling water and cook them over high heat. Take them out and put them in a soup bowl, sprinkle with chopped celery or green onions. Add appropriate amount of shrimp oil (or refined salt), Shaoxing wine, MSG, and sesame oil to the soup.
