1. Flour is very important for making authentic Northern dumplings.
2. When choosing flour for making Northern dumplings, the first thing to look at is the color of the flour.Generally, strong flour is the ideal flour. Strong flour is white in color.If the flour is yellow, it means the flour quality is not good.
3. We can also knead the flour with our hands. If it feels soft and pliable, it means it is good flour. If it feels too smooth, the quality is not good.
