Jinyuanbao Dumplings
By ViolaReichel
Winter Solstice is a traditional festival that we China pay great attention to. Proverb: When the winter solstice comes, eat dumplings. Today, I made pumpkin noodles blended with pumpkin and flour. I made "Golden Yuanbao Dumplings" for good luck. I hope I will have good luck in the coming year and have more money... Make heart-shaped jade out of Shanghai green, and use carrots to surround the "gold ingots and jade". Under the reflection of gold and silver jewelry, it is a festive gold and jade full of red.

Warm tips: 1) Steamed dumplings must be steamed and eaten immediately, because the skin will become dry and hard after leaving them for a long time. 2) Green vegetables can be used to make dumpling fillings without squeezing out water (some friends like to squeeze the green vegetables dry, so that the vitamins of the green vegetables are lost) In fact, only add the green vegetables when stirring the dumpling fillings, and just stir gently. This can not only maintain the moisture of the vegetables but also maintain the fresh taste of the vegetables. 3) Steamed dumplings must be eaten hot. The dumpling skins will be dry and hard after leaving them for a long time.
