Why we love dumplings
Manage episode 406329423 series 1301468
Dumplings feature prominently in cuisines around the world.
Some, like the Ghanaian kenkey, or the Irish dumpling, are balls of dough. But in many countries they’re filled with other ingredients.
From the Russian pelmeni, to the Japanese gyoza, for centuries we’ve been putting meat, vegetables or cheese in small pouches of pastry, and making delicious snacks.
So where did this idea originate? And are all these differently named dumplings connected?
Ruth Alexander explores the history of this humble comfort food and hears how different dumplings are made.
