When freezing jiaozi, it is generally recommended to steam it with cold water, because in the process of slowly boiling water, the hot air can slowly thaw the jiaozi, and the steamed jiaozi has a good appearance and taste. If you put hot water in the pot, the dumpling skin may be soft and rotten. If you package jiaozi now, it is generally recommended to steam it with hot water. Because cold water takes a long time to cook, jiaozi may stick and break, while hot water will retain the toughness and flavor of dumpling skin to the greatest extent.
1 The steps of steaming and freezing jiaozi are as follows:
1. First, pour a proper amount of water into the bottom of the steamer, which is about two-thirds of the depth of the bottom of the steamer.
2. Then brush a thin layer of oil on the bottom of the steamer and put the frozen jiaozi in order.
3. Then cover the pot and steam for 15-20 minutes.
4. Finally, take out the steamer and mix with soy sauce, white vinegar, garlic and other sauces to serve.
