omg, i love it so
much. i think i can eat at least 20 jiaozi in one serving :)
hehehheheheh ive mastered how to make the dumpling dough now!!! im just
using high protein flour (bread flour) and water . thats all . the
comparison is if the flour is 100 gr then the water (tap water) is 50
ml. it could make 10 pcs regular jiaozi. i usually make 50 pcs . so, i
need 500 gr flour and 250 ml water. hehehhehe
whats jiaozi? whats dumpling? is it the same???? ahahahhaha i guess you all confused!!! here its what wikipedia says Jiǎozi (simplified Chinese: 饺子; traditional Chinese: 餃子) is a Chinese dumpling widely spread to Nepal, Japan, Eastern and Western Asia. Jiaozi typically consists of a ground meat and/or vegetable filling wrapped into a thinly rolled piece of dough, which is then sealed by pressing the edges together or by crimping. Jiaozi should not be confused with wonton; jiaozi has a thicker skin and a relatively flatter, more oblate, double-saucer like shape (similar in shape to ravioli), and is usually eaten with a soy-vinegar dipping sauce (and/or hot chili sauce);
while wontons have thinner skin, have square skins, and are usually
served in broth. The dough for the jiaozi and wonton wrapper also
consist of different ingredients.
Chinese dumplings (jiaozi) may be divided into various types depending on how they are cooked:
- Boiled dumplings: (shuijiao) literally "water dumpling" (水餃; pinyin: shuǐjiǎo).
- Steamed dumplings: (zhengjiao) literally "steam dumpling" (蒸餃; pinyin: zhēngjiǎo).
- Pan fried dumplings: (guotie) literally "pan stick", known as "potstickers" in N. America, (鍋貼; pinyin: guōtiē), also referred to as "dry-fried dumplings" (煎餃; pinyin:jiānjiǎo).
