Chinese name: 饺子 (jiǎo zi)
Characteristics: It tastes fresh and delicious in various shapes.
In China, especially in northern China, making and eating dumplings is an important activity for most families on New Year's Eve in Spring Festival. The wrapper is usually made from flour and water, but the fillings vary a lot, ranging from all sorts of meat and vegetables to seafood, mushrooms and even fruit. They are meniscus, angular or ingot shaped traditionally, but nowadays they are made into flowers, birds, fish and insects, more like arts and crafts than food. It is also a tradition in northern China to eat dumplings on the day of Winter Solstice.

I just returned from a trip to China. While visiting Shanghai, my friend and I arranged a private half day tour of Shanghai’s wet markets and a private cooking class. I am a self-proclaimed “foodie” and love to learn more about a country’s culture through its food. Our tour guide, Kenny, did not disappoint. She was very thorough and did a fantastic job taking us through the wet markets and teaching us more about Chinese and Shanghai culture.
After the tour, our driver took us on a short ride to a chef’s home where we prepared several fantastic dishes. I loved this experience and hope to try making a few of the recipes at home!
If you’re looking for a unique experience while visiting Shanghai, I recommend this tour!!
