Yanggao Glass jiaozi

Glass jiaozi is a unique folk food in Yanggao. It originated from the people and entered the dining table of hotels and restaurants by the people. Because its skin is transparent or translucent like glass, people can see the stuffing inside, so people call it glass jiaozi. Yanggao is a cold region with a short frost-free period. Oat noodles and yam are the main crops planted by local farmers. The raw materials for making glass jiaozi are oat flour and yam. Of course, this is jiaozi's skin. The weight ratio of oat flour to yam flour is 37%. When cooking, oat flour and yam flour should be mixed evenly, then mixed with warm water, rubbed constantly, and finally rolled into thin dumpling wrappers. The second is to use yam and yam powder as raw materials. When cooking, first select some big yams and stew them in the pot, then peel off the stewed yams and add yam powder while they are hot and knead them evenly. Under normal circumstances, a catty of cooked yam is added with half a catty of yam powder, which should be kneaded and mixed with powder, and then made into dumpling skins. It is best to use mutton for filling glass dumplings. Because the mutton stuffing is a complete product, which is not only good-looking, but also delicious. The stuffing should be mixed with a proper amount of shredded white radish, and then seasoned with pepper, monosodium glutamate, green onions, sesame oil, etc. After being kneaded by jiaozi, it can be eaten after being steamed in a cage.
