Be careful of scalding when using boiling water; keep a safe distance while pouring.

Bring 450ml water to a boil. Pour the boiling water into the flour mixture while stirring with chopsticks, not all at once; add the reserved dry flour, wear gloves to knead, and knead on a plate until smooth and medium-soft.

Steam is extremely hot when opening the lid; tilt the lid outward to avoid steam rushing directly onto your face.

Arrange the wrapped savory dumplings neatly in the steamer tray. Put them into the boiling water pot, cover with the lid, and steam for 15 minutes.
