What is the food like in China?

Hey everyone, especially my little brother Dale, I’ve started making a catalog of all the neat foods I get to eat here in China. All the food is great, and some of the food is a little different, as you will begin to see here.

This is a package of Jiao Zi’s, or dumplings I ordered to go. These little guys are filled with a combination of meat and vegetables, then folded up and boiled until they’re ready to eat. These ones in particular are folded intricately and beautifully. You can then dip them in soy sauce, or add a little spice by mixing the soy sauce with some hot sauce to dip in. Either way, they’re great! So far, these are the best Chinese dumplings I’ve ever eaten. Heidi, I hope you’re ready, because this is might be one of the first meals you will have when you get here (and they’re fantastic!).
