1. Fresh dumplings usually take 7-8 minutes. If you have frozen dumplings in the refrigerator, about 10 minutes. When cooking dumplings, you should be careful to stir them with a spatula from time to time so that no dumplings stick to the bottom of the pot and affect the taste.

2. When cooking dumplings, first of all, you can add some salt to the water when preparing the water. This will make the dumplings less likely to stick together one by one and make the dumpling soup taste better.

3. Then when the water boils, put the dumplings in, wait for the water to boil again, then pour a bowl of cold water into the pot, and then wait for the water to boil again. This is to prevent the dumpling wrappers from burning due to being cooked for too long. This method can also be used to cook noodles. The cooked dumpling wrappers and noodles will be stronger.

4. If the dumpling skin needs to be cooked longer because the skin is thick or the filling is not easy to cook, you can follow this method and add cold water twice until the dumplings are cooked.

5. Finally, the dumplings can be placed on the steamer to let the water flow out naturally, because if placed on a plate, the water at the bottom of the plate will soak the dumpling skins and affect the taste.
