Thanksgiving Jiaozi

Dumplings also known as Jiaozi is a traditional Chinese major foods, especially in northern China. In Chinese New Year, every family will gather around the dinner table and making Jiaozi. It’s like American celebrity Thanksgiving day by eating turkey.

Last week, the manager of my building made us jiaozi for Thanksgiving day, which is odd because we supposed to eat turkey that day… anyhow, all of us were very happy about that.

Here’s a short MV made by me about Jiaozi we ate that day. It’s only for fun~

There’s a big difference about the Jiaozi we eat in Beijing, and the one we ate that day, it’s about the shape. Different region have different shapes, since the manger of where I live here is from southern China, and what we called of the Thanksgiving Jiaozi is called Huntun actually. Beside of shapes, the making process is kind of the same.
