Vegetarian Zucchini Dumplings

Overview

It is said that dumplings were invented by Zhang Zhongjing, a famous doctor in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He couldn't bear to see the ears, hands and feet of the poor people running around in the cold winter with frostbite, so he cooked mutton, ginger and other cold-warming ingredients together. After cooking, he took them out and cut them into pieces. Shred it, wrap it in dough to look like an ear, cook it in a big pot, and give it to the cold people with the soup. After eating, people feel warm all over, their ears feel hot, their blood vessels are smooth, and their ears, hands and feet will not be frostbitten. This food was first called Jiao Er, and later gradually evolved into dumplings.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 There were too many step pictures, so I used a puzzle. Today, I used a mixer to knead the dough. I added 380 grams of flour and 210 grams of water, put it into the dough bucket, and kneaded it for 10 minutes at speed 1.

   

2. 2 Peel and shred the zucchini, cut it a few times, add a little salt, squeeze out the water from the vegetable, then squeeze out the water, leaving only the vegetable for later use. 1 green onion, chopped. Fry 4 eggs into pieces. If the eggs are still very big after frying, you can cut them into small pieces. Put the vegetables, green onions, and eggs together, add salt, thirteen spices, and sesame oil, and mix the stuffing evenly.

   

3. 3 At this time, the dough has already been kneaded. After taking the dough out, continue kneading it for a while to make the dough smoother. Then divide it into small pieces, flatten them, and use a rolling pin to press them into small dough sheets that are thick in the middle and thin on the edges. Put an appropriate amount of filling on them.

   

4. 4 First fold the dumpling in half, then press it down hard with your thumbs to firm up the edges of the dough until a big belly appears in the middle, and then wrap the rest. Finished.

   

5. 5 Put more water in the pot. After the water boils, add the dumplings and add cold water once it boils. Dumplings with vegetarian fillings can usually be taken out by dotting them with water twice in the middle.

   

6. 6 Tender and juicy, with a soft texture.
