Dumplings are no longer a food for specific days. You can eat them anytime, anywhere, as long as you want. But there is a kind of dumplings that you can’t just eat if you want. This dumpling is Sixi Dumplings (steamed dumplings). The making of Sixi dumplings (steamed dumplings) is relatively time-consuming and contains some specific meanings, making it especially suitable for making and eating during holidays. Old people say that the four corners of Sixi dumplings represent the four happy events: fortune, wealth, longevity, and happiness. They are usually made during the Spring Festival or New Year. In order to get good luck during the New Year, you cannot eat this dumpling normally. Due to their unique shape, Sixi dumplings are only suitable for steaming, that is, they can only be made into steamed dumplings. The countdown to 2019 has entered. In order to warm up for the new year, I made Sixi dumplings in advance. This dumpling made me feel very comfortable just before eating it. When it was served to the table, the eyes of the whole family shone, especially my mother who was as happy as a child.
