Today is the first day of three dog days, also commonly known as the "head down", which means that the most difficult sultry day of the year has arrived. As the saying goes,"the head is covered with dumplings and the second is covered with noodles, and the third is covered with pancakes and eggs." Dumplings, which are the top food in the solar terms, have made their debut as in previous years.
There is a saying for this dumpling. Because the dumpling looks like a ingot, and the ancients said that "ingot hides blessings", and "fu" is homophonic with "fu". Therefore, eating dumplings on the hottest day of the year is the hope that you can spend the summer safely.
Nutrition experts say that high temperatures and excessive sweating in summer will cause the loss of many protein amino acids, as well as a large amount of B vitamins and other minerals. Compared with rice, the protein, B vitamins and other minerals in flour are higher, which is more conducive to supplementing nutrition.
Experts also said that dumplings should be light and better not made into large meatballs. Consider adding seafood, fungi, eggs, vegetables, and reducing the proportion of pork. The dumplings made in this way have a light taste and are even more nutritious.
The words on the post are a little late, let's eat them as late as night meal ~~ Hehe

1. Before making the filling, knead the dumpling dough first and let it rest. Since I am making steamed dumplings, I use scalded dough; the dough needs to be softer for the steamed dumplings to taste good. 2. Fish and chives are ingredients that cook very quickly, so the meat filling needs to be stir-fried beforehand, otherwise it is easy to be undercooked.
