Colorful shrimp dumplings

Colorful shrimp dumplings

Playful multicolored dumplings pairing hot- and cold-water doughs tinted with food coloring, wrapped around a juicy filling of minced pork, chives and chunky shrimp.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash the chives and chop them finely.

    Wash the shrimp and cut them into large pieces.

    The minced meat was ground earlier and taken out in advance to thaw properly.

    First mix the minced meat, add salt, oyster sauce, chicken essence, and thirteen-spice seasoning into the meat. Pour hot oil over it, add soy sauce and stir, then add chives and shrimp, and it's ready.

    Use hot water to knead the glutinous rice flour, and cold water to knead the regular flour.

    Colored ones need to be made using trial pigments. I used red. You can also use colored fruit juice and dough.

    After kneading the dough, it needs to rest for about 20 minutes, which coincides perfectly with the preparation of the filling.

    The dumplings need to be slightly larger than boiled dumplings, but not too big. After wrapping, place them in the steamer and steam for about 15 minutes.

    I wrapped two kinds; this one is not colored.

    The colors are quite pretty. Time to eat. Kids like it! Next time I'll try vegetable juice and noodles.
