[Adjust the dumpling filling "2 put 4 don't"]
First of all, let's talk about which 4 kinds of seasonings can not be put in
1. Oyster sauce
The first thing you can't put is oyster sauce, isn't the oyster sauce very delicious, why can't you put it? Let's recall, twenty or thirty years ago, except for Guangdong, there was no oyster sauce in other provinces, and the dumplings made by my mother were also very fragrant?
The reason why oyster sauce is delicious is because oyster meat is rich in glutamate, and boiling with salt will produce monosodium glutamate, that is, monosodium glutamate, and the meat itself also contains glutamate. Moreover, oyster sauce is a seafood product, which has a strong fishy smell, which will make the dumpling filling very fishy and not delicious, and the better the oyster sauce, the fishier it is.
What about the vegetarian filling? The taste of the vegetarian filling is light, and the fishy smell is stronger after adding oyster sauce, so it is better to add some scrambled eggs to make the taste more fragrant.
2. Cooking wine
Cooking wine is a seasoning to remove the smell and increase the flavor, but it only plays a role when it can be volatile, and it will not be heated when the filling is adjusted, and there is no way to remove the smell when adding cooking wine, and the alcohol will remain in the filling, producing a wine flavor, regardless of meat and vegetarian.
3. Five-spice powder and thirteen spices
These two seasonings are made with a variety of spices, and the taste is very fragrant, which is suitable for stir-frying, which can greatly enhance the taste of the dish. But the dumplings are delicious with the filling, and they don't need this kind of heavy seasoning, but it will destroy the taste of the dumplings themselves, and they are not fresh to eat.
4. Vinegar
Eating dumplings dipped in vinegar tastes better, but you don't need this seasoning when adjusting the dumpling filling. The taste of vinegar is very sour, which will make the dumpling filling sour, lose its delicious taste, and taste very strange, just like the vinegar fish of West Lake, sour.
Which 2 kinds of seasonings should you put in to make the dumpling filling taste better.
1. Eggs
Eggs are rich in water and protein, which can increase the nutrition of the dumpling filling, and when added to the meat filling, it can also replenish water, make the meat filling tender and juicy, and make the vegetarian filling more delicious.
It should be noted that the way to add eggs to meat filling, vegetarian filling is different. Just beat the minced meat directly into the raw egg to increase the moisture. The vegetarian filling cannot be filled with raw eggs, so the eggs can only be scrambled first, so that the taste is more fragrant and the taste is better.
2. Green onion and ginger oil
Oil is an indispensable seasoning for dumpling filling, which has the effect of lubrication and flavor. Some people like to add sesame oil directly, and the taste is not bad, but it is not particularly fragrant. The oil added to the dumpling restaurant is not sesame oil, but green onion and ginger oil, which is fried by itself with a variety of seasonings.
With rapeseed oil, put in green onions, ginger, onions, coriander, pepper, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, cumin and other seasonings, fry until the color is browned, so that the fragrance of spices dissolves into the oil, this green onion and ginger oil is the most fragrant, used to adjust the filling, mix vegetables, stir-fry vegetables are delicious.
Regardless of the meat filling and vegetarian filling, keep in mind the "2 put and 4 don't put it" when adjusting the filling to ensure that the dumpling filling is tender and juicy, and the taste is fragrant.
