I have always been fond of the Cantonese snack crystal shrimp dumplings. This is the second time I have made it. I finally succeeded in trying it. I am so happy.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Add the flour and starch to boiling water and stir until there is no dry powder in the form of snowflakes. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Knead into a smooth dough while it is hot. Add a little oil and knead evenly. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

   

2. 2 Take a small piece, roll it into a long strip, and cut it into small sections.

   

3. 3 Use a knife to roll it into thin slices. I was not used to it at first, so I needed to figure it out and use more skill, but I succeeded in the end.

   

4. 4 Take your time.

   

5. 5 Put the filling into the dumpling skin.

   

6. 6 Add the stuffing and shape into dumplings.

   

7. 7 The dumplings are made, but the wrapping skills are not good enough, which makes me laugh.

   

8. 8 There are two cages wrapped like this.

   

9. 9 After wrapping, put it into a steaming plate lined with white radish slices. Add water to the pot and bring to a boil. Add the wrapped dumplings and steam over high heat for 5 minutes. The steamed dumplings will be crystal clear, smooth and fragrant.
