How to make shrimp steamed dumplings

1. Cut the green onions into sections and the ginger into thick pieces. Add Sichuan peppercorns to the shreds, put into a bowl, add half a bowl of boiling water and let cool.

2. Peel the head and feet of the shrimp and remove the black line on the back. Then chop it into pieces (the water-fried shrimps can be cut directly into pieces).

3. Mix the shrimp filling and meat filling together and stir in one direction. Add salt, chicken essence, monosodium glutamate, peanut oil, and the seasoning water prepared in the first step according to personal taste (just the water, not the contents). Add this water as you mix the stuffing. Do not add it all at once, but add it several times. . Other seasonings can be added all at once or in steps. After mixing, add sesame oil and mix thoroughly.

4. Add water to the self-raising flour and make the dough soft. After mixing, cover and leave in a warm place for 10-20 minutes. Cut the dough into small pieces, roll it into a skin, the skin should be thick in the middle and thin on the edges, and wrap it into buns.

5. Put the steamer on the steamer and apply oil on the basket. (If there are not many buns, you can also put them on a small plate. Apply some oil on the dish to prevent them from sticking. Put the dish directly on the basket. ) Place the buns and steam for 20 minutes.

Tips

Mixing the stuffing is the key. Whether it is shrimp or pork, the water should be removed, and the mixing should be done in one direction. Add flavored water gradually. Use only as long as it feels right, don't add more.
