What is Chinese Steamed Dumplings
Chinese Steamed Dumplings /Jiaozi (饺子) are a kind of Chinese dumpling, commonly eaten across East Asia. It’s one of the major foods eaten during the Chinese New Year and year round in the northern provinces. Though considered part of Chinese cuisine, Dumplings are popular and often eaten in other parts of Asia and in Western countries.
Dumplings typically consist of a ground meat and/or vegetable filling wrapped into a thinly rolled piece of dough, which is then sealed by pressing the edges together or by crimping.
