Everyone loves homemade dumplings, but their modeling takes a lot of time, so most are content with purchased semi-finished products. But many housewives have already found a way out - they use special dumplings that can reduce the cooking time of a delicious dish by several times. These devices are different. They are available in the form of metal or plastic molds and pasta cutters with an additional nozzle. Sometimes there are electric models. But, as a rule, they are very expensive and rarely available for sale.
The best forms for modeling dumplings
Forms for modeling dumplings are of different types. The most common type of dumpling is round or rectangular in shape with notches and sharp edges. A layer of dough is placed on it, the filling is laid out in the holes, covered with another circle of dough and rolled with a rolling pin. A big plus of such dumplings is that you can make from 20 to 100 dumplings at a time, depending on the number of cells. A simpler, but no less common option is a mold for modeling just one dumpling or dumpling.
5 Florento 884-418
Country: Turkey
Average price: 449 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.6
For those who are looking for an inexpensive but high-quality dumpling, the shape of the Florento brand is suitable. It is made of aluminum, strong enough not to be deformed by rolling with a rolling pin, but at the same time light and easy to clean. At one time, 37 small, neat dumplings are obtained. The dough cuts well, the finished products do not stick together, they are easily removed from the mold, provided that it is abundantly sprinkled with flour.
The dumpling suits buyers in most respects. The dumplings are small and neat, the edges stick together well. But the form is quite inexpensive, so it could not do without flaws. Thin, light metal does not inspire confidence, but there are no complaints about breakage. The work is slightly hampered by too short legs, but since the pelmeni still needs to be turned over to get the finished products, this drawback is also not critical.

This pelmeni is suitable for those who are ready to spend a little more time preparing one of the best dishes of Russian cuisine.With this form, it will not be possible to stick many pieces at the same time - it is designed for only one dumpling or dumpling of a classic shape. The beauty is that they turn out perfectly smooth and beautiful. The principle of operation is simple - a circle of dough is placed in the form, the filling is placed in the center, the edges of the dumpling are clamped.
The kit includes three molds for sculpting dumplings of different sizes. This option has become very popular in recent years for several reasons - ready-made dumplings have a really “homemade” look, they do not look like store-bought ones, you can make them in different sizes, the dough is consumed much more economically. Minus - this dumpling does not really reduce the time spent.

Rating (2022): 4.8
This pelmeni is made in the manner of standard Soviet-era models, but has a rectangular shape, which ensures a more economical consumption of dough. A small addition is a measuring spoon, which helps to scoop up the amount of filling that is optimal for a given size of dumplings. The dumpling pan is made of durable polymer material and is designed for the simultaneous preparation of 40 perfectly even dough products with firmly glued edges.
This form is liked primarily by lovers of small dumplings. They are ideal for families with children. The device is simple, but very convenient to use, judging by the user reviews. Contrary to fears, the polymer material is durable and resistant to pressure. It's nice that the manufacturer took care of the presence of rubberized legs that do not allow the dumpling to slide on the table while rolling with a rolling pin. The minus follows from the plus - the small size of the finished products.

There are separate forms for sculpting dumplings. There are fewer cells in them, but they are larger. With this form, you can quickly stick perfectly even dumplings. A good example is a product from Multidom. The form is made of aluminium. It is light, but strong, under the pressure of the rolling pin is not deformed. At one time, 14 rather large dumplings are obtained.
According to customer reviews, for a price of 300-400 rubles, the shape is very good. It is easy to use, the dough cuts easily, does not stick if the edges are well sprinkled with flour. Dumplings are neat, with well-glued edges. You can also cook large dumplings. The shape has a small drawback - burrs on the cutting edge. But it is easily removed with a file or knife.

A standard dumpling, reminiscent of Soviet-era models, has a huge advantage - it is made of cast iron, durable, solid and reliable. Due to the weight of about one kilogram, the dumpling stands steadily on the table, does not budge when rolled with a rolling pin. Cast iron does not deform under pressure, sharp edges easily cut through the dough. At one time, 37 dumplings with a diameter of about 3 centimeters are obtained.
The price for a simple dumpling form is a bit high - more than 2000 rubles. But, despite the cost, the model is popular among buyers. Many in the reviews write that it is very convenient to work with her. Dumplings are well separated, do not stick, are obtained the first time. The main thing is to grease the mold with oil and bake it in the oven before the first use. Other shortcomings, except for the high price, can not be found in the reviews.
The best dumpling machines
The dumpling machine has the same design as the noodle cutter. It contains two layers of dough and a filling. When the handle is turned, neat dumplings are formed. As a rule, they are square in shape, like ravioli. A well-chosen machine greatly speeds up the preparation of dumplings. But all models have a small drawback - the filling is not very much.

Rating (2022): 4.6
Quite a functional budget machine, which provides the functions of rolling dough in nine thicknesses, cutting thin and wide noodles, making ravioli. The model is made of stainless steel, fastened to the table with a clamp. Like other rating machines, it is operated by turning the handle. Users usually have no problems with rolling out dough and cutting noodles, but the ravioli nozzle needs to be adapted. It might not work the first time.
In general, this is a good, but not the best model among budget options. Buyers have a lot of claims to the manufacturer. Some are not satisfied with the build quality and materials. Others do not like the lack of thoughtful design. Often there is information about a quick breakdown with frequent use. This dumpling can be considered if you do not plan to cook dough products too often.

Country: China
Average price: 2591 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.7
This dumpling machine can only roll out dough and form ravioli. There are no attachments for cutting noodles.It is produced in China, but it is also inexpensive - depending on the store, the price varies from 2000 to 2600 rubles. The thickness of the dough can be adjusted in six positions, the minimum is only 0.2 mm, so the device is useful not only for making dumplings, but also for making strudel.
Externally, the machine looks reliable. It is made of stainless steel, weighs more than 2 kg, so it stands steadily on the table. Judging by the reviews, the device is convenient to roll out the dough for any purpose, and not just sculpting dumplings. But there are still some complaints - far from all users can make smooth, well-stuck ravioli with a sufficient amount of filling. When first used, part of the dough has to be thrown away due to metal chips and dirt. And the handle often flies out, which complicates the work.

Rating (2022): 4.8
This dumpling machine is made in China, but of all the inexpensive options, it is considered the most successful. The model is made of stainless steel, looks expensive, copes with its purpose. On a typewriter, you can roll out the dough, cut thin and wide noodles, and quickly make homemade ravioli. The device is attached to the table with a clamp, but this is not necessary - due to the impressive weight, the dumpling pan stands steadily in place.
The price is affordable, so there are a lot of reviews from buyers. Users consider the device convenient, practical. The handle rotates smoothly, the ravioli nozzle firmly sticks the dough, the dumplings do not fall apart during cooking. But there are still a couple of drawbacks.The fillings in dumplings are not enough, as a result they lack juiciness. But the main disadvantage is weak gears, which, with frequent use, quickly become unusable.

Rating (2022): 4.9
The Italian-made dumpling machine is made of chrome-plated steel, and the gears are made of hardened steel. This is a strong, durable device that will work properly for more than a dozen years. The kit comes with several nozzles for rolling out dough, cutting noodles of different thicknesses, forming spaghetti and Italian ravioli. The set is completed with wooden spatulas for flour and a roller for cutting dough. Rolling thickness is adjustable in six positions.
The machine is quite heavy, so it stands steadily in place during operation, additional fixation to the table is not required. The handle rotates smoothly, the smooth shaft does not catch or tear the dough. This is an expensive dumpling machine, but it is a favorite for those who prefer to make homemade pasta and do not like to make dumplings by hand. The high price can be called the only drawback of the model.
