From the heart, cook for love
The canteen staff put their share of hard work
That perseverance, that love
Blend in with this plate of food
Because of their dedication
Life is more "nourishing" and "flavorful"
What do children need to eat, what do children like to eat, and how can they be more delicious? are the topics that canteen people are tirelessly working on. As the saying goes, "Dumplings are not as delicious as dumplings", and dumplings, as a folk delicacy with a long history, are deeply loved by everyone.
Dumplings are like small ingots, small and cute, green and tender yellow dumpling filling, pleasing to the eye, has always been loved by children. As the number of young children continues to increase, eating dumplings once is a "war".
The canteen staff who had just finished lunch didn't have time to take a breath, put on their aprons, washed their hands, and started to work intensively.
Look, they are focused and devoted, serious and meticulous! The dumpling wrappers are flying in their hands, putting the filling, pinching the mouth, and a series of actions in one go.
Put the round dough in your hand, lie in the middle of the delicious filling, fold it left and pinch it right, and the beautiful dumplings come out.
How to cook so many dumplings, how to divide them, how long does it take from the pot to the child's plate, will it affect the taste of the dumplings? After several attempts and adjustments, these problems have been sorted out one by one. The steamed dumplings are not sticky or broken, and when the dumplings are wrapped, they are divided into classes and plated, which is not only convenient but also prevents the dumplings from getting cold after being distributed for a long time.
The children tasted the fragrant dumplings made by the teacher, and kept exclaiming "This is so delicious!" and "I'm going to add more!" A joyful atmosphere permeates every corner of the classroom, and the fragrance wafts throughout the kindergarten.
【Origin of dumplings】
Legend has it that when the medical saint Zhang Zhongjing was in Changsha, every winter, many poor villagers on both sides of the Baihe River would not cover their bodies, and many people's ears were frozen and rotten. Seeing these scenes, Zhang Zhongjing was very distressed. He wrapped mutton and some cold-warding herbs in the shape of ears with dough, and set up a medical shed in Nanyang Pass, cooked this food and gave it to the villagers. After eating this food, the villagers were cured of their ears. Later, people called this food "dumplings"
【The meaning of dumplings】
Dumplings are boiled and eaten (the wealth is rolling), dumplings are steamed and eaten (steaming and thriving)
Fried dumplings (picking up wealth, full of gold and jade) leftover dumplings are hot to eat (keep money)
