Hello everyone, welcome to handmade story
New year is coming
We usually make some good fortune style food during holiday time
Today let's make a Chinese cabbage shaped steamed dumpling
First gradually adding water into the flour
making cotton first then shaping them into a dough
You have to use some energy to make the dough
The harder the dough the better because if it is too soft
The dumpling will easily sink down after steaming
divide the dough into one big and one small dough
add 1/2 tsp chlorella powder into the small piece of dough
to make it green
you can also use spinach juice
other green color vegetable powder
using natural color is good for health
But after steaming
The color will turn a bit yellow and dark
If you like perfectly green color, then you have to use store bought food color gel
Wrap with a food wrap after massage it smooth
After about 15 minutes
Make the white dough into long round shape
And roll the green dough into flat square shape
spread a bit of water onto the green flat
then wrap the white dough with the green flat
cut into small pieces
take one small piece and roll it into small round flat
fill in the fillings you like
make a star shape first
Use right thumb and index finger to make the veins of the cabbage leaf
Slowly one wave after another
don't push too hard
otherwise it will be broken
when you done the fist leaf
stick the end part onto the next leaf
repeat the process to finish all five leaves
shaping a bit
the leaves underneath should be tight incase it will get open after steaming
Let's watch one more time
put in to the steamer
high heat steam 10 minutes
I wish all of you happy new year and good fortune in advance
