2. Wash the chives and chop them into small pieces.

Skill:

1. Chopped green onion and ginger are essential

Especially for meat-filled dumplings, chopped green onion and ginger are absolutely indispensable. If chopped green onion and ginger are missing, the unique fishy smell of the meat filling will appear. So be sure to add chopped green onion, ginger and meat filling and mix well first.

2. Add appropriate amount of water to the meat filling

When making pork fillings, especially beef fillings, you must remember to add an appropriate amount of water when making dumplings or buns. The method is to gently add water around the edges while stirring in one direction with chopsticks. It should be noted that if you want to add cabbage, do not add too much water because cabbage itself has a lot of water.

3. Put the seasoning in the meat filling

Some people like to mix the meat and chopped vegetables together first, and then add various seasonings when making dumpling fillings. The taste of the dumplings will definitely be greatly reduced. To do this, first put chopped green onion and ginger into the minced meat, then add various seasonings into the minced meat in turn, stir evenly, and then add the dishes you want to add.

4. The vegetables in the dumpling filling should not be too dry

Some people will squeeze the vegetables into the meat filling very dry, which is not good. The dumplings made in this way will feel "dry" and taste bad in the mouth. This is especially true for vegetables such as celery, Chinese cabbage, and large peppers. Do not squeeze them too dry. Chinese cabbage is an exception because it contains a very high amount of water. If it is not squeezed, it will become "dumpling filling soup".
