Khinkali steaming is a traditional Georgian technique for cooking dumplings.
Technical
The steaming process involves cooking dumplings in a large pot with a steamer basket, typically at 100°C (212°F) for 10-15 minutes, to retain moisture and flavor. The technique helps to break down connective tissues in the meat and cook the dough evenly.
