3. Immediately put the frozen dumplings (which are the hard ones and should not be boiled after thawing) into the pot and start cooking. At this time, use the back of the spatula to gently stir the dumplings in the pot to prevent the dumplings from sticking to the pot.
4. Cover the lid of the pot and cook over medium heat. After boiling, add a small half bowl of cold water, and then stir the dumplings gently in the pot with the back of the spatula.
5. Don't cover the pot at this time. Open the pot and boil it. Add cold water once and stir the dumplings in the pot with the back of the spatula once. After repeated three times, the frozen dumplings bulged and floated to boil.
6. Cause analysis: why don't boiled dumplings with cold water break the skin? Frozen dumplings and cold water are heated together. When the water temperature rises slowly, the temperature of the skin and the filling also rises slowly. When the water is boiled, the temperature of the inside, outside and boiling water of dumplings is very uniform. Therefore, the dumplings cooked have good elasticity and cooked meat. If the frozen dumplings are boiled only after the water is boiled, the dumplings are in the environment of internal freezing and external heating, and the dough is soon scalded. Before the internal filling is cooked, the dough has been boiled and broken.
