The method of cooking dumplings can be called one of the simplest, because it is enough to boil water, throw in the dumplings and wait for cooking.

However, some people defrost the dumplings beforehand, but this is a serious mistake. Therefore, it is worth understanding why you should never defrost them.

Why dumplings should be frozen

The secret to successful dumplings is the correct cooking temperature.

When dumplings are frozen, this allows them to retain their shape and structure. When defrosted, they can lose their shape, become sticky, and even fall apart during cooking.

Effect on taste and aroma

Defrosting dumplings can also cause loss of flavor and nutrients. During the defrosting process, juices containing important elements may be released. Therefore, after defrosting, loss of flavor and aroma is a natural phenomenon.
