From the production methods of jiaozi, there are dumplings, steamed dumplings, fried dumplings and so on. Its fillings are also varied, ranging from well-known jiaozi to sweet jiaozi. In terms of styling, that's even more! Crescent, triangle, Yu Tu and jiaozi, etc.
Today, I will introduce you to one of them, steamed dumplings!
We choose buckwheat noodles as dumpling wrappers, which is very simple and convenient. It is especially suitable for diabetics, and vegetables and meat can be freely mixed in the stuffing.
Buckwheat noodles are rich in protein, B vitamins and minerals. Dietary fiber is several times that of ordinary rice and flour! PMP contained in buckwheat has the function of preventing and treating diabetes, which can stimulate pancreas to promote islet secretion and lower blood sugar!
The first step is to prepare the materials.
Soba noodles 100g (available in big supermarkets! Everyone should observe the color when buying, and you can scrape the flour with a spoon provided by the supermarket. No white particles or less proves that buckwheat noodles are better. Undoped white surface)
50g ordinary flour (high gluten flour or wheat flour is also acceptable).
3 grams of salt and a bowl of water.
Step two, mix the dough and make dough.
Pour buckwheat flour and white flour into a basin and add salt. Pour an appropriate amount of water into the basin and start stirring. (I suggest you add water slowly for three times, and observe while stirring) until it is stirred into flour floc, as shown below!
Start kneading the dough by hand until the dough is formed.
Cover the kneaded dough with plastic wrap or buckle the empty bowl. Wake up for half an hour!
The third step is to start production.
When the dough wakes up, take it out and put it on the chopping board, and knead it for a while to make the dough smooth. Then knead the dough into long strips and cut it into small extruders with a knife. About thirteen grams each!
Knead each dough and then round it all. Press the palm flat and roll the dumpling skin with a rolling pin. Try to be the same size!
The fourth step is to make stuffing and wrap jiaozi.
You can make dumpling stuffing according to your own preferences. I choose shepherd's purse and chicken breast.
Shepherd's purse is a kind of wild vegetable, which is sold in the morning market. I remember when I was a child, I used to dig things in the fields by myself. Has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, invigorating spleen and improving eyesight. It tastes good, too!
In fact, leek eggs are also used to make steamed dumplings. One of the good filling materials!
Step 5: Boil the water and have a big fire, and you're done.
Put a layer of oil on the grate to prevent it from sticking to the pot. Put the steamed dumplings in order, leaving room.
Add water and cold water directly into the pot, put it into jiaozi and steam for 20 minutes!
It's time to turn off the fire, and then stuffy for five minutes before opening the lid. All right, pans and plates.
The darker the color of the cooled buckwheat steamed dumplings, the purer the buckwheat flour.
Steamed dumplings with buckwheat noodles are tender, soft and salty. This method is simple and time-saving. Especially at home, you can also improve yourself. The fat content of buckwheat flour is particularly low, which is very suitable for diabetics who need to control their blood sugar and protein intake. Friends who like it can try it at home and make steamed dumplings with miscellaneous grains that suit their taste!
