Sauerkraut and pork dumplings

Overview

I have been eating my mother’s pickled cabbage and pork dumplings since I was a child. Every winter, my mother would buy some pickled cabbage, and the sauerkraut would be ready after a month. Around the Spring Festival, the most popular dumplings were stuffed with sauerkraut and pork. Now that my mother is old and I have grown up, the dumplings stuffed with pickled cabbage and pork have also been passed down to me. I can make the series of steps of adjusting the stuffing, rolling out the skin, and making dumplings myself. It’s time for my mother to taste the dumplings stuffed with pickled cabbage and pork that I made.
