Let's talk about whether to chop jiaozi's meat or use a meat grinder.

It depends on personal taste. If you want to save trouble and time, you can chop the meat directly and raise it with seasoning after you go home. Another feature of ground meat is that it can cook fat meat, which is more suitable for people who don't like fat meat. However, many people don't like the meat ground by the meat grinder. They think that meat has no texture and tastes bad, which is far less delicious than cutting it yourself.

The meat of dumpling stuffing needs to be cut very finely, which is a bit troublesome to cut by yourself, but there is a relatively simple method, which is to freeze the meat in the refrigerator for a while before cutting it. You can't freeze too much, so you can't cut it. You have to calculate the time and take it out at the right time so that you can cut it quickly and easily. It's a little troublesome to do this, but the meat you cut with a knife is really delicious. If you like minced meat, you can chop up your own meat with a knife. The minced meat cut with your own knife is very different from the minced meat cut with a meat grinder. I can't say why, but it's really different.

Although hand-chopped meat tastes better, it has many shortcomings and is noisy. The sound of chopping meat can be known all over the building in jiaozi. I'm so tired. Chop three or five pounds of meat at a time, the project is very big, and you can be so tired that you can't lift your wrists.

If you open a shop to do business, the amount of meat will be larger, and it is too tired to chop the meat by hand. Therefore, in order to reduce the labor intensity, the best choice is to chop the meat with the help of a machine, which saves time and effort, whether it is to pack jiaozi at home or open a shop. If you don't have a meat grinder, you can find a butcher to help you grind it.

All meat grinders use auger technology: a combination of drum, auger and cutter to grind meat into meat stuffing. Chop the meat with a rotary reamer, discharge the meat from the meat grinder with a auger with a screw rod under extrusion, and process it into granular meat stuffing with different sizes according to the size of the hole of the discharge drum. Although the meat grinder saves time and effort, its shortcomings are also obvious.

Not as delicious as meat chopped by hand, which is why many people prefer to work harder and chop meat by hand. Due to the high-speed operation of the machine and the high temperature under extrusion, the flavor and taste of minced meat are slightly worse than that of handmade minced meat.

However, in order to save time and effort, we have to use machines to grind meat. Although the meat grinder is slightly inferior, it can be adjusted from the following three aspects to make the meat more fragrant and reduce the disadvantages brought by the machine. Finally, the jiaozi wonton made by the machine has a meaty taste and a better taste.

Extended data:

Jiaozi wonton is usually made of pork stuffing. Take pork as an example to illustrate.

First, control the proportion of fat and lean pork.

1, creature

The fat-thin ratio of dumpling stuffing is generally seven thin and three fat, and eight thin and two fat. Jiaozi made of too thin pork will dry wood, and jiaozi made of too fat pork will be too greasy. The meat stuffing with the right proportion of fat and thin makes jiaozi delicious, and the smell of pork is attractive.

2.wonton

Wonton is divided into big wonton and small wonton, and the meat stuffing of big wonton and dumpling stuffing is basically the same. Focus on the fat-thin ratio of small wonton meat stuffing. The fat-thin ratio of the small wonton meat stuffing should be controlled at 1 9, so that the meat stuffing will be fragrant, not hard to eat, and can hold a group. Of course, some people use whole lean meat to make small wonton.

I feel that the meat is not tasty enough, and in order to dry the meat stuffing, more processing is needed, so it is not recommended to use whole lean meat as a small wonton stuffing. The proportion of fat and lean meat stuffing in small wonton is well controlled, and the made small wonton has a meaty taste and bites the head when eaten.

Second, control the particle size of ground meat.

There are three kinds of machines that can grind meat stuffing: the wall breaker, that is, the cooking machine, is too thin and broken to use; If you grind about a catty of pork at a time, it is recommended to use a manual meat grinder. If you grind a lot of meat, don't consider it.
