OH THATS WHAT THAT THING IS my mom's had one of those metal steamer things for years and i never knew what it was lol
Same haha
Though hers is very much broken by now, I think
Fr me and my siblings thought it was a frisbee of some sort cus it didn't have the legs and it crashed in to the neighbors window and slammed into his head
I have a metal steamer that is also a colander
My mom used one of those to hold all her potatoes 💀💀
I thought it was a like caviar cooker- 💀💀
If you don't have a liner, you can use literally any green leafy veg to line the steamer, like spinach, cabbage, mustard green, bok choy, etc. It'll most probably work with any other thinly sliced veggie too. This way, you can enjoy delicious steamed veggies along with dumplings and make the meal better balanced!
What about lettuce?
@@Cashcash69I'm pretty sure thar works too.
Its not real more balanced. Especialy if you use lettuce.
Ohh thank you!!!
You could also use coffee filters like she said in another video
That metal steamer is used as a basket for collecting flowers in our neighbourhood 🙂
Omaaa a bangali same same 😂
Bro sameeee
Yes but in my area hair it is used for keeping Pan and betel nut
@@scandalouss1073 🤣
I used the metal steamer as a toy as a kid ans seeing it again gives me nostalgia
You could also use a coffee filter
I've used coffee filters in a pinch and works fairly well
So I just tried out this without the steamer liner but instead of dumping I used pot stickers really really good ❤
I wish I would've watched this an hour ago. They were still good.
If you don't have a steamer liner you can use baking paper (the anti grease kind) and just poke a few holes in them...
We had this thing in our house and nobody knew what it was so I made a sunflower out of it 😂😂
After Steam your dumplings pour water in it. Then it won't stick. It's a Bangladeshi Technic. Okay try it . Thanks. Love from Bangladesh.
Can you use lettuce ?
Yes, you can! You can also use cabbage. We'll share that next for you. :)
I've seen those steamers in store but never knew what they were. I gotta pick one up now.
In our culture that metal steamer is used for serving Tambul or pan to the quest or for house
I had one of these in the home I was renting and thought it was just a collapsible strainer all these years… thanks for the tip 😂
My ma always used to use carrots if we ran out of the sheets- could you test it to see if you still works??
Your dumplings are extremely cute. They are round. I love them
Thats why just rub some drops of oil and steam it😊
You can also use baking paper. I do that all the time.
Can I use air fryer liners? Would that work too? :)
Great idea thanks
In my country we use this thing for găluște (are a tipe of food made from rice ,meat, fat, and other vegetables all wrapped up in a leaf of cabbage or grapes leaf )
Bros life roams around dumplings
Of course, years later, when I can actually buy soup dumplings, I can't find that metal steamer basket my mom had.
I just use a stainless trivet for this then line it with foil (added hold/security for the food) and poke holes in it.
u can use baking pepper actually, I cook dumplings like that
Actually if you transfer them after cooling it will come out easily without loosing soop
You can also use a coffee filter if you don’t have and steamer liners
Do you have to poke holes in the coffee filter?
@@uberoll1044 No, the steam gives off enough moisture through the filter
You also can use spam if you’d prefer
My mamma always used those to steam potatoes
Uncle Roger approve
So that's a steamer 😮 my grandma uses it to put fruits on 🤣
U can use musslin cloth instand paper
Wait i saw thos metal things in stores i thought it was a strainer😂😂😂
Wet paper towel works too guys
Me and my dad have that and thought it was to make a radio 💀
WHAT
My friend uses that as a strainer😂👍
I just get wet paper towel and fold it once and place on the steamer 😊
Life hack: Actually you can use any type of oil and once ur dumplings are done just give the steamer a nice shake they'll come off easily 👍
Can you use a metal steamer with lettuce
Can you use the coffee liner things in this method
Can you please make vegetarian dumplings pleaseeee
"People who know her as the soup dumpling girl".💀💀💀
Can I use a coffee filter instead of a steamer liner?
I HAVE THAT i thought it was a strainer 😢
You kind of look like jun ji-hun
Rather you just put refined oil with brush just do this it may help you bec I do this every time
Can you please try papertishoose or paper
Lmao those metal streamers are used as basket in my home.
I have wasted so much money on those steamers. Finally got a stainless graduated solid steamer that fits all my pots and doesn't fall apart. Bamboo steamers work too, buy take up more room.
Hinestly, you should get a steamer where you have more floors for more dumplings, they are pretty cheap
Is the liner similar to parchment paper?
🤤🤤🤤
Could I use parchment paper
Can you use butter paper
did you put salsa macha on top of the dumpling? i'm sorry if it's not but it looks like it
Can you boil them?
Can u try to deep fry the dumplings
Can u use parchment paper instead of steam liner??
Btw those dumpling are looking so good😋😋
Yes! Just make sure poke several holes throughout the paper so the steam could get through :)
They’re overcooked. You can tell because they’ve deflated.
I don’t think they are they look fine
Do you guys ship to Malaysia?
Basically we can use anything that has holes in it right???
That thing is a steamer I used it as a pencil holder
Y'all i thought i was the only one who used it for other purposes other than the steamer 💀
I am today years old to find out it was a steamer💀

So in there is only one steamer liner how are u supposed to use it many times😢

Ungle Roger:good good
Her: if you decide to skip steamer liner use OLIVE OIL
Uncle Roger:OLIVE OIL HAIYAA she just made a Jamie Oliver level mistake HAIYAA uncle Roger had to put leg down from chair

That's a metal steamer 💀 i've seen aunties in my neighbourhood storing suparis(beetlenut) and paan in it
Ok but what if you don't have any type of steamer and you can't find any steamers anywhere
put less water
Doesn't everyone have one?
Can we use baking paper instead?
Actually you can use any type of oil and once ur dumplings are done just give the steamer a nice shake they'll come off easily 👍
@@anshikapradhan5165 thank u so much
That steamer can cook 8-10 the most . And in our household we eat 20+ per person , me 35 .😅😂😂. That steamer is useless to us. We have something called moktu made up of aluminium which can cook 60-70 at one time
Why don't you transfer your dumplings to a plate before putting the chilli like it's so messy
You can but the Chinese ancestors will haunt u
Thats a stemer..? Bro where is the other levels?
Do you guys hv vegan dumplings I rly can't have meat

Wait, dumplings have soup?
