What kind of snack is Chengdu "dragon hand"?

Long Dumplings, a famous traditional snack in Chengdu, is a special name for wontons in Sichuan. The name of the snack: Chengdu's "Dragon Dumpling" was opened in 1941 in Yuelai Field in Chengdu, moved to Xinji Field in the early 1950s, and then to the southern section of Chunxi Road in the 1960s, with a history of more than 70 years.

Long Dumplings was founded in the 1940s, when Zhang Guangwu of the "Thick Flower Tea House" on Chunxilu discussed the idea of a joint venture to open a dumplings store, and the name of the store was harmonized with the sound of the Chinese character "thick", and also took the meaning of "dragon and phoenix presenting good luck" and "dragon and tiger leaping", and was named "Long Dumplings". The main features of the Dragon Dumpling are: thin skin, tender filling and fresh soup. The skin is made of special flour with a few ingredients, which is rubbed and kneaded slowly, and rolled into a translucent shape that is "as thin as paper and as fine as silk". The meat is tender, smooth and flavorful. The original soup of Longbei is made from the meat of several parts of chicken, duck and pig, which is stewed and simmered slowly. The soup is white, thick and fragrant.
