Cooking dumplings usually takes 5 to 15 minutes.
The dumplings are divided into inner filling and outer skin, both of which are relatively easy to cook. If you boil the dumplings in hot water, they will be ready for consumption in as little as 5 minutes. If the water is cold, the cooking time will be longer, it may take 15 minutes to cook, which the stove also affects the cooking time of the dumplings, usually if the dumplings float up, it means that they have been cooked.
It is important to note that not all dumplings take the same amount of time to cook. Generally, frozen dumplings from the supermarket need to be cooked for about ten minutes so that the dumplings can be cooked. However, since the quick-freezing time varies, you can use chopsticks to poke them while they are cooking.
If you can poke it easily, it's done. For freshly wrapped ready-made dumplings, there is more water, so put them directly into the water to cook, usually 5 to 6 minutes basically.
