Today i made Jiao Zi, or Dumplings. We had some guests over so i decided to make some Jiao Zi. I made some golden dumpling wrappers. That's what i am going to tell you about in this recipe.
I used
2 c. all purpose flour
3/4 c. boiling water
3/4 t. turmeric powder
Put flour and turmeric powder in a bowl, pour in boiling water. After mixing and kneading, let it sit in a plastic bag with flour in it, for about 30 minutes. It will make it warm and like super soft and easy to work with.
for filling it
divide this up into about 32 pieces and with a light weight chinese bamboo rolling pin, roll them with some flour to make it non-sticky into a circle. Then put about a teaspoon, maybe a little more, into the wrapper and put some water around the edge to make it stick better. Have fun! I'll post some jiao zi filling recipes later. :D
