What could be easier than boiling dumplings? You just take it out of the freezer and put it in the pan. It turns out, even in such a case, you can be questioned. I'm sure you've gotten one sticky lump instead of dumplings. The reason for this is one mistake that we repeat over and over again. Therefore, today we will understand how to cook dumplings correctly so that they turn out to be perfect.



Editorial "Site" It tells you fundamental things.

Many people believe that dumplings are the food of bachelors and students. However, this dish is also a wand for busy housewives who do not have time to stand at the stove. In addition, it is a hearty dish that you can feed the whole family. Modern semi-finished products are of good quality and good taste. Although, of course, they do not compare with home dumplings.

Dumplings can be prepared in different ways: fry, cook, steam. But the traditional way is still cooking in a pot. And here lies the fatal mistake. How are we used to cooking dumplings? Boil water, salt it a little. We take out dumplings and send them straight from the freezer to boiling water. That's the big mistake.



It turns out that you can not throw dumplings from the freezer into boiling water. Frozen dough is not plastic and dry, so it can quickly burst and then stick together. There are two better ways to do this. After boiling water, share in a pan a glass of cold boiled water, and only then add dumplings. This will help to level the temperature. The dumplings will remain intact and will be kept separate.

You can do it differently. First, hold the dumplings at room temperature. No need to defrost completely, 10-15 minutes is enough. Then the dough will become more plastic and will not spread during cooking.



Of course, many of our readers are already wise in business affairs. But we are sure that there are those who do not know anything about dumplings. Therefore, we tell you how to properly cook dumplings in stages. First you need to choose good dumplings. You have to look at the lineup. It's better not to save. After all, there is a simple relationship: the lower the price, the worse the meat inside.



Now is the time to boil the water in the pot. Boil dumplings should be in a ratio of 1 to 3. If you want to get a rich broth, then you need to take less water. When the water boils, add salt, pepper and spices to taste. You can also pour a spoonful of vegetable oil. This, by the way, will also help the dumplings not stick together.

Slightly defrosted dumplings (as we described above) send to the pan. After that, they must be thoroughly mixed until the water boils again. That way they won't stick to the bottom and walls of the pot. Then you need to reduce the fire and cook dumplings for about 7-12 minutes. How do you calculate the right time? Most often, the manufacturer indicates this on the packaging. But it is always better to navigate in the process. If the dumplings surface, they're probably ready.



Immediately after cooking, remove them from boiling water, otherwise the dough will be filled with water and will become tasteless. The finished dish can be eaten with any dressing to taste. For example, ketchup, sour cream or mayonnaise. Some people like vinegar dumplings. In general, that's all you need to know.



As you can see, sometimes in such a simple case there can be a catch. I hope this article will help you avoid mistakes!
