In addition to cold salad, fried food and pickled vegetables, kohlrabi is also used to wrap jiaozi with a unique flavor. The turnip dumpling stuffing is not only delicious, but also nutritious, which is deeply loved by diners. Here is a detailed introduction to the practice of turnip dumpling stuffing for everyone.
We need to prepare fresh turnips. When picking kohlrabi, you should choose the one with moderate size and hard texture. After cleaning, cut the kohlrabi into filaments or diced. In order to remove the spicy taste of kohlrabi, you can soak the cut kohlrabi in salt water for a while, and then drain the water for later use.
Next, we need to prepare other fillings. Commonly used fillings are pork, mushrooms, fungus, shrimp skin and so on. Pork is best to choose pork belly, which is fat and thin, and tastes better. Soak mushrooms and fungus in advance and cut them into dices. Wash the shrimps and drain.
After the stuffing is ready, you can start seasoning. When seasoning, you need to add a proper amount of salt, monosodium glutamate, chicken essence, thirteen spices, five spices powder and other condiments. In order to increase the umami flavor of the stuffing, you can also add a little oyster sauce or soy sauce.
Mix all the fillings well. It should be noted that you can't add water when mixing the stuffing, otherwise the dumpling stuffing will produce soup. Let the mixed stuffing stand for a while to let all kinds of ingredients fully taste.
When wrapping jiaozi, roll the dumpling wrapper into a round shape, add a proper amount of stuffing, fold it in half, and then pinch and seal it. The wrapped jiaozi can be boiled, steamed, fried or fried, and the cooking method can be selected according to your own preference.
When cooking jiaozi, put it into jiaozi after the water boils, and gently push it with a spoon to prevent it from sticking to the pot. Jiaozi will float when cooked. Take it out and drain it.
When steaming dumplings, put jiaozi into the oiled steamer and steam over high fire for 10- 15 minutes.
The method of frying jiaozi is relatively simple. Pour a proper amount of oil into the pot, heat it, put it in jiaozi, and fry until both sides are golden.
The method of frying jiaozi is similar to frying jiaozi, but you need to put more oil and fry jiaozi until it is golden and crisp.
