In How to make homemade dough for dumplings I am going to teach you in a few steps and with a demonstrative video how to prepare your own wafers that beat the industrialists by a landslide. This recipe is perfect for the little ones to help you and have a great time cooking.
Make your own dough for dumplings in home allows you to play with the sizes and shapes apart from controlling the ingredients knowing what you feed your family. I know that it is much more convenient and faster to buy them but if you have a little time, you do not need much, I recommend that you do them because the taste and quality are not the same.
This recipe is very easy and while the dough is at rest you can cook the filling that you like the most and if you have a few discs left, you can keep them in the fridge or freeze them (in my tricks I will tell you how).
And the best of all is that to make it you don’t need a robot or a mixer, just with your little hands and in a very short time you have a rich dough ready with which you can prepare some great ones. dumplings stuffed with meat, stuffed with cheese and bacon or whatever you like. You can also use it to make them fried or baked. Whatever you do, they will always be perfect.

Step-by-step videorecipe
Ingredients:
- 500 gr of flour
- 80 gr of butter
- 200 ml milk
- Salt
Step by Step
- Melt the butter in the microwave, while you are pouring the flour into a large bowl, so that you can work without problems, and make a little hole in the center.
- When the butter is liquid, pour it on top of the flour and add a little salt. You are pouring the milk little by little and gathering the ingredients with your hands until you get a dough. As soon as it begins to form, you move it to the counter and continue working until you get a smooth dough.
- To make it easier for you, divide it in half and knead for 5 minutes. Wrap each portion in cling film and let it rest for a quarter of an hour.
Final preparation
After 15 minutes, unwrap and divide again in two. Flour the countertop and the rolling pin, stretching each portion to a thickness of 2 millimeters.
Take a mold as a template and cut the wafers the size you are going to make the dumplings. Remove the mold and the excess dough carefully so as not to warp or break them.
My tips and tricks
- Do not throw the excess dough, because you can stretch it again and make more wafers.
- You can use the discs at the moment, keep them in the refrigerator or freeze them always wrapped in transparent film.
- When you go to defrost them, you take them out 10 minutes before and separate them one by one to make it faster.
- You can make the dough in a food processor if it is more comfortable for you.
- As a mold you can use a bowl or something similar.
And you already have them ready to fill them with what you like the most
Note: the price is indicative, it all depends on where you are going to buy. I hope you liked this dish and prepare it. Until the next post.
