Crispy dumplings

The snacks called crisp dumplings are not only in Wuhan, but also in Chaoshan, although they are both fried sweets made of glutinous rice, but there are big differences. Chaoshan crispy dumplings are fried with sweet fillings, and the appearance is very similar to dumplings; Although Wuhan crispy dumplings are called "dumplings", they have no filling, and the powdered sugar is wrapped in a long strip.

Wuhan crispy dumplings are made of glutinous rice noodles in long strips, and the two ends are held and twisted in the opposite direction before getting into the pot, so that the fried crispy dumplings can be spiral-shaped. Fry it until golden brown and it will come out of the pan, and the shape resembles a mini version of the fritters. The crispy dumplings that have just come out of the pot are put into the powdered sugar and rolled to make the dumplings wrapped in powdered sugar, which tastes sweet, crispy and glutinous. Some stores also add soybean flour to the powdered sugar, which not only reduces the sweetness, but also increases the flavor of the bean and the taste of dietary fiber.
