Welcome the God of Wealth on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year - Money Dumplings
Overview
The fifth day of the first lunar month is commonly known as Po Wu. One said that many taboos five years ago can be broken on this day. According to the old custom, we eat dumplings, which in the north are called boiled dumplings. Women no longer stay taboo and start visiting each other to pay New Year greetings. This day is also the day to welcome the God of Wealth. Everyone is full of hopes of getting rich. I hope that the God of Wealth can bring gold and silver to their homes and make them rich in the new year. I was no exception. I made dumplings at home, and I also made a few money dumplings, hoping for good luck. Make money immediately!

Ingredients
Steps
-
Add about 3 tablespoons of light soy sauce and about 1 level tablespoon of cooking wine to the ground pork filling, and stir evenly in one direction. Then add an appropriate amount of water and stir in one direction until the meat filling is strong, sticky and thin. (No matter what kind of vegetables are added to the meat filling mixed in this way, it will not become watery.) No matter how many days the meat filling I make is stored, I never have to worry about the vegetables being killed by the salt.
-
Peel, wash and chop the ginger.
-
Pinch off the dead leaves from the leek, wash and chop into fine pieces.
-
Add chopped leeks and minced ginger to the minced meat filling.
-
Add salt in one direction and mix well. (This is also an important step to ensure that vegetables do not leak out of water)
-
Prepare flour.
-
Mix the flour into a soft dough, cover it in a basin and let it rest for 15 minutes. Then take a small piece of noodles, roll it into a long strip, cut it into small pieces, and then roll each small piece into a uniform round cake, with the same size as possible.
-
First put a little filling into each small round cake, fold it in half and pinch the edges tightly.
-
Then cross-cover each 4 small dumplings into a money shape, pinch the edges tightly and then fold them into lace.
-
Wrap the money dumplings one by one.
-
Add water to the pot and bring to a boil, put the money dumplings into the pot and cook. In the meantime, also order cold water twice and boil it three times. I cooked it with the dumplings.

It’s out of the pot, let’s eat the dumplings, and you’ll be rich soon!
