【Tianjin】Corn dumplings

Overview

During the Chinese New Year, many people pay special attention to eating dumplings. They eat dumplings more often and with ever-changing fillings. This is not only for the sake of taste, but also from the perspective of health. This corn dumpling fits both of those needs perfectly. Corn is rich in various vitamins and dietary fiber, which is especially helpful for relieving constipation. Adding sweet corn kernels to the filling of dumplings is not only delicious but also increases dietary fiber. Paired with corn kernels in the dumpling stuffing are lean pork that can enhance human immunity, carrots that are very good for the eyes, celery that has a good therapeutic effect on high blood pressure and vascular sclerosis, black fungus that can cleanse the intestines and detoxify, replenish blood and calcium, and white fungus that can clear away heat and detoxify, nourish yin and moisturize dryness. This dumpling is colorful, nutritious, delicious and healthy.
