Best Jiaozi
in Beijing
Jiaozi are the quintessential centerpieces of Northern Chinese communal feasts and family celebrations. Beijing-style dumplings feature slightly thicker, chewier handmade wrappers designed to withstand boiling or pan-frying. The fillings range from the traditional pork and chive to adventurous seafood combinations like mackerel or crab roe. They are traditionally dipped in a mix of black vinegar, soy sauce, and aromatic garlic paste. In the capital, eating jiaozi is a ritual of togetherness that highlights the region's deep wheat-based culinary roots.
