As a result, instead of a normal dish, you will get an unappetizing mass.

How can we avoid this outcome? It turns out there is a saving supplement.

The expert of the online publication Belnovosti in the field of cooking, chef, fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova told about it.

How to keep dumplings from sticking together

The saving ingredient should be... vegetable oil.

Two tablespoons of this viscous liquid are enough to cook the dumplings properly.

However, the additive must be added to the water on time.

So, you can pour oil into the liquid only after adding the dumplings.

By the way, to prevent sticking, you need to follow some other rules.

Firstly, it is advisable to choose a saucepan with a wide bottom: using such cookware will seriously reduce the likelihood of a culinary accident.

Secondly, you need to remember the correct ratio of dumplings and water: for 500 grams of product there should be one and a half liters of liquid.
