There are many ethnic groups in China, and the customs of New Year's Eve dinner are naturally different. Various places have customs that reflect their own characteristics. Eating dumplings as the staple food of New Year's Eve dinner is also a traditional habit. Dumplings mean "getting married" when the old and the new alternate. The dumplings are wrapped in an ingot shape, which means longevity and wealth. It is also a good fortune and a good hope for people. Serving cooked dumplings on the table one by one symbolizes the meaning of "making a fortune in the New Year, rolling in ingots".
The staple food I made uses white flour and pumpkin bread to make ingot dumplings in two colors of gold and silver. The fillings are made of chicken and mushroom, which means a happy and happy life and good luck. I wish you all a fortune in the New Year, a lot of gold and silver ingots, and continuous financial resources...
Chicken and mushroom are used for the dumpling fillings. Needless to say, chicken is not as delicious as mushrooms and has a strong aroma as mushrooms, but it is rich in nutrients. It is more nutritious when paired with chicken.

1. Squeeze the oyster mushrooms thoroughly dry, otherwise the dumplings will easily burst.
2. Pumpkin has a high water content, so no extra water is needed when making the dough.
3. Chicken is naturally savory, so there is no need to add MSG. (Though I rarely use MSG anyway.)
