Mom’s taste—hot noodles and steamed dumplings

Overview

I remember when I was young, my mother would always prepare delicious food in different ways so that my brother and I could eat more vegetables. What I especially remember at that time was this hot noodle steamed dumpling, which not only contains the deliciousness of dumplings, but also has the chewiness that the dumpling wrapper does not have. Now that I am away from work, I often think about the taste of my mother when I miss home. After asking my mother many times for advice, my hot noodle steamed dumplings are also freshly baked.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare raw materials: leeks, tofu, and carrots. These three vegetables are necessary. Wash them separately and control the water;

   

2. 2 Soak the dried fungus and set aside;

   

3. 3 Boil the vermicelli in boiling water for a while, then soak until soft. It is best to use sweet potato flour, which will taste great;

   

4. 4 Cut all the raw materials into small dices, add salt, peppercorns, light soy sauce and other seasonings respectively, then heat the pan and heat the oil for a while, then the delicious filling is ready;

   

5. 5 Prepare an appropriate amount of flour, this depends on the number of people in the family;

   

6. 6 Prepare boiling water and stir the flour clockwise with chopsticks while pouring it into flocculent form;

   

7. 7 When it is no longer hot, knead the dough together, cover it with a towel and let it rest for 10-15 minutes;

   

8. 8 After the hot noodles wake up, take a small part of it and shape it into a long strip;

   

9. 9 Cut the rolled strips into small pieces evenly and flatten them with your fingers;

   

10. 10 Roll out the skin. The skin of steamed dumplings is slightly different from that of dumplings. When rolling out, it is slightly thicker than the skin of dumplings. It is still thick in the middle and thin on the sides;

    

11. 11 Place the prepared stuffing on the steamed dumpling skin and prepare to wrap;

    

12. 12 I learned this technique from my mother. I don’t know what it’s called specifically. You can perform it on the spot according to your own situation, haha;

    

13. 13 Brush the grate with oil, and then place the steamed dumplings evenly. In order to ensure that the steamed dumpling skins are not dry, it is best to sprinkle some cold water on them;

    

14. 14 During this interval, you can prepare garlic sauce. Generally, you use minced garlic, chopped green onion, coriander and chili powder, add hot oil and then add vinegar, sesame oil and soy sauce;

    

15. 15 Just steam the steamed dumplings in a hot pot for 20-25 minutes. The delicious steamed dumplings will be freshly cooked, haha.

    

16. 16 I took a steamed dumpling and dipped it in the spicy and sour garlic sauce. No one was so greedy, so I started eating it first!
