Vegetable dumplings
When I returned to my hometown in Xiaoshan a few days ago, I happened to meet the 12th of the seventh lunar month. We call it the "Ghost Festival" here. We need to make dumplings to sacrifice to our ancestors and the deceased. Every time after the dumplings are steamed, everyone is not allowed to eat them, otherwise you will get angry from my mother. Mom would pick out a bowl first to pay homage to our ancestors, and then we could eat it after it was ready.

Steps for Vegetable dumplings

1
Cut all the ingredients in the vegetable filling into small dices, add salt and monosodium glutamate, take out of the pan, and let cool for later use.
2
Mix glutinous rice flour and japonica rice flour in a ratio of 3:2 and divide them into two portions. Add clear water to the pot and boil. Pour one portion of the flour into the boiling water, and use chopsticks to stir constantly to turn it into a thicker paste than the paste. If we do it well, we will call it pulp head, and put the pulp head into another portion of flour.
3
After the pulp becomes warm and cool, mix it into a smooth dough until pressed hard like this.
4
Roll the dough on top into long strips and pick it into pieces by hand.

1. The green ones are made with moxa, and they are made with moxa dumplings during the Qingming Festival. 2. The dishes added inside can be added according to your preferences. What we traditionally add is fried vegetables. 3. After steaming, pour some water on it so that it will look moist. 4. When pinching the bowl, the top edge should be slightly thinner, so that the lace will be thinner and more beautiful. Also, the bowl wall should not be too thin, otherwise it will break.
