Dumplings are an ancient traditional pasta of the Han nationality, a food deeply loved by the Chinese people. It is a must-eat food during the Spring Festival in most parts of northern China. In many provinces and cities, there is also a custom of eating dumplings during the Winter Solstice. Dumplings are also a common food in southern China. According to legend, dumplings were invented by Zhang Zhongjing, the medical saint of Nanyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty of China. The historical evolution of dumplings has undergone a long and gradual process. Zhang Zilie in the late Ming Dynasty gave a good explanation: "Boiled dumplings are Duan Cheng-style food, soup balls, or powdered jiao. Northerners pronounce jiao as jiao, so they call dumplings bait, and pseudo-jiao as jiaoer."

Dumplings are a kind of stuffed semi-circular, half-moon or triangle-shaped pasta. Popular in East and North Asia. Dumplings are mostly made with cold water and flour. Mix the flour and water together and knead them into a huge dough. Cover it with steamed wet gauze or towel and leave it for about an hour. Cut it into several small doughs with a knife. Then knead it into long strips with a diameter of about 3 cm and cut it into small dumplings. Use a small rolling pin to roll these small dumplings into dumpling skins that are slightly thicker in the middle and thinner around the edges. Wrap the stuffing and pinch it into crescent or triangle shapes. Boil the cold water first, then put it in the pot after wrapping it and use a colander or soup spoon (turned over with the convex side facing up) to draw arcs along the edge of the pot counterclockwise or clockwise to prevent the dumplings from sticking.

The dumpling wrappers can also be made of hot dough, fried dough, egg noodles or rice noodles; the fillings can be meat or vegetarian, sweet or salty; and the cooking methods can also be steaming, baking, frying, or deep-frying. The meat fillings include three fresh meats, shrimp, crab roe, sea cucumber, fish, chicken, pork, beef, mutton, etc., while the vegetarian fillings are divided into assorted vegetarian fillings and ordinary vegetarian fillings. Dumplings are characterized by thin skin, tender fillings, delicious taste and unique shape. The raw materials used to make dumplings contain a full range of nutrients, and the steaming and cooking method ensures less nutrient loss. Dumplings are in line with the connotation of China's food culture of color, fragrance and taste. There are many famous dumplings from all over China, such as shrimp dumplings made with rice flour in Guangdong, pot stickers in Shanghai, crab roe steamed dumplings in Yangzhou, broth dumplings in Shandong, Laobian dumplings in Shenyang, Zhong dumplings in Sichuan, etc., which are all popular varieties. Xi'an also created the dumpling banquet, which uses dozens of dumplings with different shapes and fillings to entertain guests.
