Welcome the God of Wealth on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year - Money Dumplings

Overview

The fifth day of the first lunar month is commonly known as Po Wu. One said that many taboos five years ago can be broken on this day. According to the old custom, we eat dumplings, which in the north are called boiled dumplings. Women no longer stay taboo and start visiting each other to pay New Year greetings. This day is also the day to welcome the God of Wealth. Everyone is full of hopes of getting rich. I hope that the God of Wealth can bring gold and silver to their homes and make them rich in the new year. I was no exception. I made dumplings at home, and I also made a few money dumplings, hoping for good luck. Make money immediately!

Ingredients

Steps

  1. Add about 3 tablespoons of light soy sauce and about 1 level tablespoon of cooking wine to the ground pork filling, and stir evenly in one direction. Then add an appropriate amount of water and stir in one direction until the meat filling is strong, sticky and thin. (No matter what kind of vegetables are added to the meat filling mixed in this way, it will not become watery.) No matter how many days the meat filling I make is stored, I never have to worry about the vegetables being killed by the salt.
