Fresh Meat Filling

The third step is key to properly binding the meat: first, beating and mixing the meat thoroughly combines its fibrous tissue with seasonings or water completely, preventing separation. Second, this beating process allows the meat's fibrous tissue to fully absorb seasonings and moisture, so the finished product is juicy and tender. Two key points to note when beating the meat to bind it: first, season the meat before adding water, otherwise the water will separate easily. Second, stir in a single consistent direction, which helps the meat's fibrous tissue connect into a unified whole. If you don't have a mixing stick, you can use chopsticks to stir, just remember to keep stirring in the same direction.
