Dumplings originated from the ancient horn. The original name of the dumpling is "Jiao Er", which is rumored to be the first invention of the Chinese medical saint Zhang Zhongjing, with a history of more than 1,800 years. Dumplings, also known as water dumplings, are a staple food and local snack in northern China, and are also a food for New Year's festivals. There is a folk song that says, "Eat dumplings to celebrate the Chinese New Year." Dumplings are often boiled in water and filled with dough.
There are many famous dumplings throughout China, such as shrimp dumplings made from Chengdu flour in Guangdong, pot-sticker dumplings in Shanghai, steamed dumplings with crab roe in Yangzhou, small dumplings in high soup in Shandong, dumplings on the old side of Shenyang, and Zhongshui dumplings in Sichuan, all of which are popular varieties. Xi'an also created a dumpling feast, with dozens of different shapes and fillings of dumplings to form a banquet for guests.
Dumplings have now become an indispensable New Year's food for people in the north. When making dumplings, people often include gold ruyi, brown sugar, peanuts, dates and chestnuts in the filling. Those who eat ruyi and brown sugar will have sweeter days in the coming year, those who eat peanuts will live a long and healthy life, and those who eat jujubes and chestnuts will give birth to precious children early.
