EXERCISE 實戰演練
Topic: Dumplings
In Taiwan, you can taste a variety of “dumplings” such as shuǐjiǎo (水餃), zhēngjiǎo (蒸餃),
potstickers (鍋貼), or xiǎolóngbāo (小籠包)--keep in mind that they are different types of food in
Chinese, but in English they are all dumplings.
One of the most famous Chinese steamed dumplings is xiǎolóngbāo, which originated from the
south of the Yangtze River (長江). The soup inside this bite-sized pleated dumpling with pork
filling is the most memorable. There is a proper way to eat Chinese Soup Dumplings. Use
chopsticks to grab the top of the dumpling and put it on your spoon. Take a tiny bite and slurp up
the soup, and then you can consume the rest of the dumpling.
