Cooking Steps
Step1:Remove the head, tail and hard shell of fresh shrimp. Pick out the shrimp line. Cut half of the shrimp into small dices for standby.
Step2:Finely chop the other half into shrimps and put them into a mixing bowl. Meat with different fineness, taste and layers will be more abundant.
Step3:Chop the front leg meat into mince.
Step4:Mix the minced prawns with the minced pork. The fat and thin pork is matched with the delicious and tender shrimp. The taste is better than the single shrimp.
Step5:Dice the ginger. Ginger can reduce the smell of meat. If you don't like the taste of ginger, you can change it into lemon juice to marinate the meat.
Step6:Carrots are sliced according to the amount of shrimp dumplings they want to make. This can make about 15 shrimp dumplings. So I cut 15 carrots.
Step7:Shred the remaining carrots. Mix in the minced meat.
Step8:Add ginger, salt and soy sauce.
Step9:Mix well and start to beat. Let the mince go strong. The meat stuffing is usually mixed with chopsticks in one direction. Beating can make the meat stuffing more elastic. Use one hand to hold the meat stuffing along the side of the container, and then beat it inside the container. After more than ten times of beating, the meat stuffing will become more and more sticky.
Step10:Marinate for about 20 minutes.
Step11:Mix the semolina with cornstarch. Chengmian is also called Chengfen and wheat starch. Its viscosity is between cassava starch and corn starch. It has good transparency and is an essential raw material for making crystal dumplings. However, the taste of clear noodles alone will be too sticky, so it's best to mix with a little corn starch.
Step12:Add boiling water. Stir while pouring.
Step13:Stir until dry.
Step14:Knead into a smooth dough. Cover with plastic wrap and wake up for 5 minutes. The dough must be covered with plastic wrap or wet cloth, or it will be dried easily. In the next few steps, we should also pay attention to cover the dough that is not used temporarily to prevent water loss.
Step15:Sprinkle a little starch on the chopping board to prevent sticking. Take out the wake-up dough.
Step16:Rub into strips.
Step17:After cutting into small dosage forms, cover with fresh-keeping film to prevent water loss.
Step18:Take one and rub it round and flatten it.
Step19:Flatten gently with a kitchen knife or scraper, etc. Because the dough made of starch has no gluten. If you use a rolling pin, it is easy to break. The success rate will be greatly increased by pressing with a kitchen knife and scraper with large contact area. But be careful when pressing. N
