Steamed dumplings are traditional Chinese festival food, and they are a must-eat for the Spring Festival every year. According to legend, it was invented by Zhang Zhongjing, the "medical sage" of Nanyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty. In many provinces and cities in China, there is also the habit of eating dumplings during the winter solstice. Dumplings are also commonly found in southern China. Although this kind of ordinary snack is hard to be featured in the banquet, it is the original delicacy of Xi'an Dumpling Banquet Restaurant in recent years. Together with the famous imitation of Chinese dishes and beef and mutton steamed buns, it is known as the “three must-dos of Xi'an food”. Dumplings are generally just traditional snacks filled with pork, beef, mutton and vegetables. But now not only chicken, duck, fish, eggs, seafood, delicacies, fresh vegetables, dried vegetables, fruits, etc. can be used as fillings. Anything that is delicious and nutritious can be used as filling.
