How to make egg dumplings with Shanghai cuisine?

Every household in Shanghai has its own specialties and traditions, but one thing is absolutely indispensable for almost all Shanghainese's New Year's Eve dinner, and that is egg dumplings. Many dishes are essential, such as jiaozi, an egg, which becomes a gold ingot on the dinner table of the New Year's Eve. Egg jiaozi is delicious, but it is troublesome to make. When I was a child, I was always a coal stove, a big iron spoon, a piece of fat oil, and a spoonful of egg liquid rolled. Actually, making egg dumplings is not that troublesome. My uncle has a secret recipe for making eggs and dumplings quickly, which is specially distributed for the benefit of the public. As soon as the Spring Festival arrives, it is normal for all kinds of media, from traditional media to self-media, to talk about eating overwhelmingly. China people have always paid attention to food for the people, and there are naturally many articles about the most important meal of the year-New Year's Eve.

I read several articles about Shanghai New Year's Eve in recent days. Some say it is an indispensable 20-course dish for Shanghai New Year's Eve. Some articles say that more than 30 dishes are actually just stewed lion's head, chicken bone sauce and even ribs rice cake, which is just a "drag". Speaking of Shanghainese's New Year's Eve, because Shanghai is an immigrant city, there are not many real Shanghainese. Most of them came to Shanghai in the second and third generation, gradually settled down and finally integrated into the city. Nature has brought some traditions of their own origin, so every family has its own special dishes and traditions, but there is one thing that is absolutely indispensable for almost all Shanghainese's New Year's Eve. Not much to say, uncle went to the kitchen today to teach you how to make homemade egg dumplings. I hope you have a good time ~

3. Finally, put the meat stuffing on half of the egg skin, gently pick up the top of the egg skin and cover it with the meat stuffing. Carefully press the egg skins on both sides with chopsticks and turn the egg dumplings over until they are golden on both sides. Pour it out and serve it ~

Uncle tip

1, the strength of chopsticks pressing the edge of egg skin needs to be controlled by themselves, and there must be a sound of "Yi Yi" but it cannot be punctured;

2. The meat stuffing in the egg dumplings made in this way is not cooked, so it can't be eaten directly and needs secondary processing. Cooking soup or cooking can be done;

3, the amount of oil, after adding oil and stirring, the egg liquid is covered with a layer of finely chopped oil flowers as the right amount, and salt should be added in moderation, otherwise the egg skin has no taste.
