Chive dumplings
Overview
Dumplings are an essential delicacy during important festivals. Dumplings stuffed with leeks are very popular. The fragrant leeks and boiled dumplings have a strong festive atmosphere. I have loved eating leek dumplings since I was a child. Full of memories, the taste of grandma. Leeks are rich in nutrients, have high yields, are easy to grow and have a fragrant taste. Regular consumption of leeks can also promote intestinal peristalsis, reduce the absorption of cholesterol and reduce the incidence of diseases without losing weight. Traditional medicine believes that leeks are warm in nature, can warm the kidneys and help yang, benefit the spleen and stomach, and regulate qi and blood. Eating more leeks can nourish the liver and strengthen the spleen and stomach.
