A tradition is a part of a culture that's handed down from one generation to the next.
It could be a special story, a song, or a dance.
In my family, making dumplings is a tradition.
A dumpling is a piece of dough wrapped around a filling.
These are going to be made with minced pork, minced chives, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
Lots of families in East Asia eat dumplings.
They could be steamed, boiled, or pan-fried.
(soft music) Families in Northern China like to eat dumplings to wish for warm winter and wealth, because they look like gold ingots, which is ancient money.
Lots of cultures have some form of dumpling.
Depending on where you're from, it could be ravioli, pierogi, or yomari.
Try finding different recipes to try with your family to learn about different cultures and history.
Happy eating!
