In China, jiaozi is a common delicacy on our dining table. It is also a custom in many areas to eat jiaozi on some traditional festivals such as the winter solstice and New Year's Eve. Have you ever thought that jiaozi is, in the final analysis, "a stuffed bag", which is unique to China? Well, it's really not. Many other countries in the world also have jiaozi. It's just that jiaozi in the world is not a family, and the difference between jiaozi in different countries is not a fragment. Today, I will tell you about foreign jiaozi, so get ready to drool.

First up, the Italian jiaozi. Our traditional jiaozi in China is generally ingot-shaped, but the Italian jiaozi is a square with lace on all sides and looks like a bulging little pillow. Moreover, the most commonly used fillings in jiaozi are sweet ingredients such as cheese, pumpkin and beet. That's very different from our jiaozi taste.

After the Italian "square dumplings", let's talk about Indian and Nepalese jiaozi. In these countries, the most typical "jiaozi" is a triangle, commonly known as fried samosa. What is samosa like? You can imagine, golden crispy skin, wrapped in potatoes, peas, meat, onions and other ingredients, take a bite, um ... curry flavor!

In addition, Eastern European countries such as Russian and Ukrainian also have their own jiaozi, and all kinds of fillings are very rich, including vegetable dumplings, meat dumplings, cheese dumplings, butter dumplings, and even jiaozi stuffed with mashed potatoes and fruits. Probably because of the cold weather in Eastern Europe, jiaozi in Eastern European countries has a heavy taste and high calories, which is very suitable for enjoying in cold winter.

Although these jiaozi are strange enough, I haven't talked about the most wonderful jiaozi-because just now these jiaozi are all stuffed with leather bags, and there is a kind of jiaozi that is unique, and it has no stuffing at all!

This is jiaozi in the Czech Republic. If you order a roast duck with jiaozi in a Czech restaurant, it is likely that a roast duck with "steamed bread slices" will be served. These "steamed bread slices" are made of wheat flour, milk and eggs without any stuffing. That's strange enough!
