Golden Yuanbao steamed dumplings
Steamed golden ingot dumplings, use steamed pumpkin paste to mix dough to make golden ingot skin. The filling is made of carrot. One is to use the homophonic "Cai" of "dish" and the "You" of the meat filling, that is, meat dish-Youcai. The other is to use tofu to represent silver, and the carrot to represent gold. The shape of ingot has the same sound and meaning. As a New Year dish, it is a pretty good choice.

    1. For these steamed dumplings, it is best to use scalded dough so they won't lose their shape easily after steaming. 2. It is best to use cooked filling to reduce the steaming time. 3. Make sure to pinch the opening tightly, otherwise wealth will leak out, losing the meaning of the ingot dumplings. 4. Since the soybean paste is already salty, basically no salt needs to be added; please adjust according to your own taste.
