When the Lantern Festival comes, we have to eat tangyuan. So, is Tangyuan boiled in boiling water? I'd better cook it in cold water. Let's have a look with Xiaobian!
Is Tangyuan boiled in cold water or hot water
It's best to cook with hot water, so there won't be any problem. However, we should pay attention to glutinous rice products. It's easy to cook with a high fire, and the taste will be much worse. Pour it into the pot, boil the water, and put the dumplings into the pot. At this time, we must remember to change it to a low fire, as long as we don't let the water boil. (if the water boils up, we'll add a little water)
Thawing is still a very important step. There will still be many problems if you put it directly in the pot without thawing. The time will wait for a long time. If there is ice in the refrigerator, we must melt it first. It is best not to use a stainless steel pot. When we boil the water and put the dumplings down, we must slide the dumplings down the pot. After the meeting, the dumplings will float up. When we see that the dumplings are half larger than before, we can turn off the fire.
Can you boil the dumplings in cold water
Boiled dumplings are cooked in boiling water, but cold water doesn't taste good.
Tips for cooking Lantern Festival:
1. Stewing in boiling water tastes better, there will be no problem of mixed food, and for most people, it won't stick to the pot. Boiling water: after the water boils, put the lantern into the pot, gently push it away with a spoon and let it rotate for a few weeks without sticking to the pot wall.
2. We all know that the viscosity of glutinous rice products is very large. Sometimes, the longer the cooking time, the shape will change greatly. Slow boiling: after the Lantern Festival floats, quickly switch to slow fire. Otherwise, the Lantern Festival keeps rolling. It is hard to eat outside and hard inside. It won't digest after eating.
3. And cooking dumplings is a procedure. Putting cold water three times can completely fix the skin of dumplings, and the shape will not scatter. Point cold water: in the process of cooking, add a small amount of cold water every time you open the pot to keep the Lantern Festival in a rolling state. After boiling the water two or three times, cook it for a while, and then you can eat it. The Lantern Festival cooked in this way is soft but not hard, sweet, sticky and delicious.
