Dumpling
Chinese dumplings or Jiaozi, with meat and vegetable fillings, is a traditional Chinese Food, which is essential during holidays in Northern China. Chinese are Masters in the Art of Making Dumplings.
History
The history of jiaozi dates back to ancient times, some 500-600 years ago. As the Spring Festival marks the start of a new year, people choose to eat jiaozi to connote their wishes for good fortune in the new year. China has been perfecting the art of dumpling making since the Sung dynasty.
Fillings
There is no set rule as to what makes dumping fillings. They can be anything from vegetables, meat to seafood. Whatever the fillings, the wrapping skill needs to be exquisite to make jiaozi look attractive.
Shape and variety
Chinese dumplings may be round or crescent-shaped, boiled or pan-fried. The filling may be sweet or savory; vegetarian or filled with meat and vegetables. Of course, all this variety can be confusing.
As China is a country with a vast territory, there are great difference in various
regions in ways of making jiaozi or even serving it. For example, dumplings wrappers are made with a rolling stick in most areas of Beijing and Hebei Provinces, whereas in some parts of Shanxi Province and inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, wrappers are hand- pressed.
How to make Chinese dumplings
To make Chinese dumplings, first of all, chop the meat into pieces and mash them, then add salt, sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger, scallions, Chinese cabbage and MSG if you like. Mix thoroughly the ingredients; add two spoonful of water if necessary. In a big bowl, add water to flour gradually. Mix and knead by hand to form soft dough, then cover it with towel and put it aside for about an hour. Then scatter some dry flour on the board, knead and roll it into a sausage---like dough about 5 centimeters in diameter, then chop it into small pieces. Press each piece with your hand and get a pancake. Finally, to hold the pancake with your palm and put the filling in the center and wrap into half-moon shaped and seal the edges.
The next step is easy. Put the dumpling into boiling water, when it is well cooked, it is ready to be served. Before eating, you need to prepare some small dishes to contain the mixture of soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil or pepper oil [to your own taste.
Ways of serving
Ways of serving Chinese dumplings also vary from place to place. Generally, Chinese dumplings are boiled in clear water and served dry with vinegar, soy sauce, garlic or pepper oil if one likes them hot. In some parts of the Northeast China, however, dumplings are boiled in broth together with vermicelli made from bean starch, and served together.
Chinese dumplings and culture
New Year's Food
Chinese dumpling is one of the most important foods in Chinese New Year. Since the shape of Chinese dumplings is similar to ancient Chinese gold or silver ingots, they symbolize wealth. Traditionally, the members of a family get together to make dumplings during the New Year's Eve. They may hide some coins in one of the dumplings. The person who fined the coin will likely have a good fortune in the New Year. Chinese dumpling is also popular in other Chinese holidays or festivals, so it is part of the Chinese culture or tradition.
Family Link
Making dumplings is really a team work. Usually family members will join the work. Most ChineseTo starte to make dumplings when they was a kid in family, they know how to make cially good at making dumplings, particularly making skins, which is the hardest part of making dumplings.
Sending Off Friends
Chinese dumpling is often the food for sending off friends or family members away. I guess this is another tradition.

Recipes
I have put together a list of recipes of Chinese dumpling.
Filling:
*1 lb. ground pork (or beef)
*6 T. sesame oil
*2 t. sugar
*0.75 t. salt
*0.25 t. pepper
*0.25 lb. cabbage
*1 t. salt
*0.25 lb. chopped green onions
Skin:
*3 c. flour
*0.75 c. cold water
*0.5 c. flour (to prevent sticking during kneading)
soy sauce
water
vinegar (white or rice)
garlic (fresh, chopped fine, or powdered)
ginger (fresh, chopped fine, or powdered)
small bowl with water for dipping
Details of making Chinese dumplings
1. Filling: Mix ground pork, oil, sugar, chop cabbage，salt and pepper until fine. Let sit for 10 minutes; then squeeze out the excess water.
2. Skin: In a bowl, add water to the flour and knead into smooth dough; let it stand for 10 minutes. Roll the dough into a long baton-like roll and cut it into 50 pieces. Use a rolling pin to roll each piece to a thin circle.
3. Combine: Place 1 portion of filling in the center of a dough circle. Fold the circle in half and moisten the edges with water. Use index finger and thumb to bring the sides together. The smooth edge will conform to the decreased length of the pleated edge. Pinch the pleats together then pinch to seal. Place the dumpling on a floured tray and repeat this with the remaining dumplings.
4. Boil: Boil 10 cups of water and add dumplings; gently stir to prevent dumplings from sticking together. Bring to a boil; turn the heat to low and cook for three minutes. When serving, use vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, hot bean paste, etc. as dipping sauces.
5. Serving: Serve the dumplings hot (if you cook them in bamboo baskets you may wish to serve them from it directly at the table) with bowls of soy sauce mixed with red wine vinegar.

篇七：春節作文1000字：中國的春節
春節作文1000字：中國的春節
春節，是中國人最重視的節日。中國的春節歷史悠久，大約有四千多年的歷史了。它的來歷有很多，其中最出名的是這個故事：
中國古時候有一種叫“年”的獸，頭長觸角，兇猛異常。“年”長年深居海底，每到除夕才爬上岸，吞食牲畜傷害人命。因此，每到除夕這天，村村寨寨的人們扶老攜幼逃往深山，以躲避“年”獸的傷害。有一年除夕，從村外來了個乞討的老人。鄉親們一片匆忙恐慌景象，只有村東頭一位老婆婆給了老人些食物，並勸他快上山躲避“年”獸，那老人把鬍子撩起來笑道：“婆婆若讓我在家呆一夜，我一定把年獸趕走。”老婆婆繼續勸説，乞討老人笑而不語。 半夜時分，“年”獸闖進村。它發現村裏氣氛與往年不同：村東頭老婆婆家，門貼大紅紙，屋內燭火通明。“年”獸渾身一抖，怪叫了一聲。將近門口時，院內突然傳來“砰砰啪啪”的炸響聲，“年”渾身戰慄，再不敢往前湊了。原來，“年”最怕紅色、火光和炸響。這時，婆婆的家門大開，只見院內一位身披紅袍的老人在哈哈大笑。“年”大驚失色，狼狽逃躥了。第二天是正月初一，避難回來的人們見村裏安然無恙,十分驚奇。這時，老婆婆才恍然大悟，趕忙向鄉親們述説了乞討老人的'許諾。這件事很快在周圍村裏傳開了，人們都知道了驅趕“年”獸的辦法。從
此每年除夕，家家貼紅對聯、燃放爆竹;户户燭火通明、守更待歲。初一一大早，還要走親串友道喜問好。這風俗越傳越廣，成了中國民間最隆重的傳統節日。
中國的春節來歷繁多，習俗也繁多。比如在民間人們還喜歡在窗户上貼上各種剪紙——窗花。窗花不僅烘托了喜慶的節日氣氛，也集裝飾性、欣賞性和實用性於一體。剪紙在我國是一種很普及的民間藝術，千百年來深受人們的喜愛，因它大多是貼在窗户上的，所以也被稱其為“窗花”。窗花以其特有的概括和誇張手法將吉事祥物、美好願望表現得淋漓盡致，將節日裝點得紅火富麗。還有除夕守歲是最重要的年俗活動之一，守歲之俗由來已久。最早記載見於西晉周處的《風土誌》：除夕之夜，各相與贈送，稱為“饋歲”;酒食相邀，稱為“別歲”;長幼聚飲，祝頌完備，稱為“分歲”;大家終夜不眠，以待天明，稱曰“守歲”。 “一夜連雙歲，五更分二天”，除夕之夜，全家團聚在一起，吃過年夜飯，點起蠟燭或油燈，圍坐爐旁閒聊，等着辭舊迎新的時刻，通宵守夜，象徵着把一切邪瘟病疫照跑驅走，期待着新的一年吉祥如意。這種習俗後來逐漸盛行，到唐朝初期，唐太宗李世民寫有“守歲”詩：“寒辭去冬雪，暖帶入春風”。直到今天，人們還習慣在除夕之夜守歲迎新。古時守歲有兩種含義：年長者守歲為“辭舊歲”，有珍愛光陰的意思;年輕人守歲，是為延長父母壽命。自漢代以來，新舊年交替的時刻一般為夜半時分。
過年的故事可真有不少，這裏有一個流傳很廣的故事。傳説，古時候有一種身黑手白的小妖，名字叫"祟"，每年的年三十夜裏出來害人，它用手在熟睡的孩子頭上摸三下，孩子嚇得哭起來，然後就發燒，講囈語而從此得病，幾天後熱退病去，但聰明機靈的孩子卻變成了痴呆瘋癲的傻子了。人們怕祟來害孩子，就點亮燈火團坐不睡，稱為"守祟"。 在嘉興府有一户姓管的人家，夫妻倆老年得子，視為掌上明珠。到了年三十夜晚，他們怕祟來害孩子，就逼着孩子玩。孩子用紅紙包了八枚銅錢，拆開包上，包上又拆開，一直玩到睡下，包着的八枚銅錢就放到枕頭邊。夫妻倆不敢閤眼，挨着孩子長夜守祟。半夜裏，一陣巨風吹開了房門，吹滅了燈火，黑矮的小人用它的白手摸孩子的頭時，孩子的枕邊進裂出一道亮光，祟急忙縮回手尖叫着逃跑了。管氏夫婦把用紅紙包八枚銅錢嚇退祟的事告訴了大家。大家也都學着在年夜飯後用紅紙包上八枚銅錢交給孩子放在枕邊，果然以後祟就再也不敢來害小孩子了。原來，這八枚銅錢是由八仙變的，在暗中幫助孩子把祟嚇退，因而，人們把這錢叫"壓祟錢"，又因"祟"與"歲"諧音，隨着歲月的流逝而被稱為"壓歲錢"了。這裏有一則有關春節的報道：春節成為百姓最愛，甚至超過了生日在調查問卷“你最喜歡過的節日(日子)是哪個”一項調查中，“春節”、“情人節”、“我的生日”三個選項，60%參與調查的市民選擇了“春節”，2%的人選擇了“情人節”，38%
的人選擇了“我的生日”。 由此看來，煙台人是非常重視春節的，60%的參與市民對於春節的重視程度甚至超過 過了自己的生日。而對於舶來品“情人節”，雖然被商家炒得熱熱熱鬧鬧，但如果讓煙台人三者只能選其一的話，大家卻均不約而同捨棄了它。看來，目前我們暫時不用擔心洋節會取代中國傳統節日，尤其是春節。手機尾號為0562的市民發短信説：“今年情人節與春節相距很近，春節沒有受到衝擊，反而是情人節被淹沒在忙年的氣氛中，由此可見，中國人最重視的是春節，這一點不會改變。”
年夜飯、放鞭、貼春聯，一個都不能少：提到春節，你最先想到的詞是什麼每個人都會有不同的答案，正是一個個傳統習俗才讓春節過得有“年味”。在本次調查中，市民給出的答案依次為拜年(佔32%)、吃年夜飯(佔28%)、放鞭炮(佔18%)、貼春聯(佔12%)、壓歲錢(佔8%)、祭祀(佔2%)。繼承傳統，延續民俗，已經越來越得到市民的認可。著名剪紙藝術家朱曼華深有體會，她告訴：“年前，煙台大學的幾名外教特地來到煙台山公園剪紙藝術館，買了一大堆剪紙作品，説是要帶回國送朋友。許多去外地訪親拜友的市民也來買裝禎好的剪紙，作為民俗藏品送給朋友。”多數人選擇在家過年，少數年輕人外出旅遊。春節，是一個闔家團圓的節日。每到這時，不管多遠的遊子都會想到回家過節，但是隨着時代的變遷，許多年輕人觀念也在變化，就比如近兩年新興的全家
一起外出旅遊。
在“你準備在哪裏過春節”一項調查中，56%的市民表示“在煙台，自己的家”;40%市民表示“回老家”;還有4%的市民表示“外出旅遊”。市民王女士今年春節與老公要一起去海南自助旅遊，她説：“往年一到春節就要往外地的公婆家跑，人也累、心也累，今年她要給自己放一個長假，好好放鬆一下。”異鄉遊子不回家，主要是奔波花銷。大調查顯示，家在外地的人選擇在煙台過節的理由各不相同，56%的人原因是“來回費用太貴”，30%“不願意旅途奔波”，還有14%“沒有假期”。你回趟老家，估計要花費多少錢參與調查的市民給出的答案分別是，44%選擇“1000元以下”，“22%”選擇1000-XX元，“24%”選擇“XX-5000元”，還有10%選擇“5000元以上”。許多異鄉遊子表示，回一趟老家，來回路費、給孩子壓歲錢、帶年貨、給父母過年費、挨家挨户拜年……真累，最想過年，也最怕過年。
年夜飯在哪兒吃八成市民願意在家裏。儘管如今到飯店吃年夜飯已悄悄興起，但是大多數煙台市民仍表示年夜飯要在家吃。“你準備在哪裏吃年夜飯”這一項調查中，78%的市民表示在“家裏”，16%市民表示在“飯店”，還有6%在“親戚朋友家”。拜年方式變化大。近幾年，隨着人們生活變化，通訊工具的更新、普及，春節拜年方式也發生了“變革”，從一開始天不亮就挨家挨户拜大年，到電話拜年、傳呼拜年、
