[edit] Suggestion
"Families have dumpling wrapping parties just before New Year where they slaughter the choicest livestock, grind the meat, wrap the meat into dumplings, and freeze them outside with the help of the freezing weather."
May I please suggest revising this sentence? There are folks who:
-
- don't have to slaughter the family cow, pig, or chicken for the filling AND
- do not use the great outdoors for refrigeration. -cheers- Ariele 05:14, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
Lol, have done so. LDHan 02:08, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Question
"A female who gets the dumpling with a date will be supposedly be blessed with giving birth to a child for that year."
What does " a date" here mean? Please tell me if anyone knows about it. Thanks a lot!
[edit] Cantonese romanisations
Can anyone explained why Cantonese romanisations are given for the names of the various types of non-dim sum jiaozi, when as far as I'm aware Jiaozi (the food) is not from Cantonese speaking areas, if Jiaozi is from a particular part of China it would be Northern China.

- I doubt there could be an explanation. From the articles's history, it seems that the Cantonese was added here with no explanation on the talk page why. I'm sure you could remove the Cantonese without much opposition. Mar de Sin Speak up! 00:03, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for your comment, I have done so and added a bit on the Canotnese style dumplings. LDHan 17:34, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
