What do dumplings look like around the world?- Miranda Brown

Sadly no mention of Knödel (knedlík) from central Europe 🤷🏻‍♂️

Now i'm wondering... would a tamal be considered a dumpling? it's masa dough wrapped around a filling and steamed, after all

I am east asian my husband is west european, he loves dumplings and it saved our marriage 😂

Sad not to see African or American dumplings, i miss some "pastel" mention...

The dumpling in the Republic of Georgia is called Khinkali and is eaten with pepper sprinkled on top. The meat inside swims in meat broth. You first bite a little hole into the dough, slurp out the broth and then eat the rest with just the little dough knot on top left over. These can be later counted to compare who ate the most.

In malaysia , we have something called karipap which is curry (meat or potatoes) stuffed in dough

Question for my fellow Swedes: should palt be considered a type of dumpling?

Cool vid! Here in argentina (and i guess Chile too) we have Empanadas, these long, big dumplings that are filled with anything that you can call edible lol

In India, we call it momos.

Ted ed makes me so hungry with these videos

The last line is so true (that cooking fillings encased in dough would be delightful) is so true
Thanks for the cravings 😋

i got tricked by thinking this is a new dumpling video
little did i know its just a new title

Aside from dumplings being delicious, I think there's another reason why people invented them: portability.

It would be difficult and cumbersome to transport meat and vegetables while marching with armies or travelling long distances, and eating them would require pausing to cook it. But dumplings allowed soldiers and travellers to eat their pre-cooked meat and veggies on-the-go. This is how, for instance, the Cornish pastie in England (which is nothing but a glorified dumpling, surely) came about.

I’m Chinese American and I’m impressed by how accurate the pronunciation is. 😃 It’s nice to see that everything is connected in the world, even with food.

So is a tamale technically a dumpling?

The animation in this one was like the TED-ED version of studio Ghibli food animation. Makes me rather hungry

My friends and I once held a dumpling parade where each of us tried to make one kind of dumpling

Gyoza

The Silk Road

Samosa

This could pretty solidify the fact that cultural aspects are not origin or unique, we just have different approaches to a same material?

Dumpling is a flour shell that conceals a meat pearl 😇

Dumplings are enjoyed a lot in Nepal but they are not called dumplings.. They are called MoMos.. since then it has travelled to India, Bangladesh and other countries as MoMo. We cant thank enough Nepal for bringing in MoMos as food!

Its called momo in Nepal and has great traditional importance.

dumplings also came to india, known as "momos" and they are delicious!

You can eat the best mantı in Kayseri and Sinop provinces of Türkiye.

asking myself this question couple years ago and find it here is a delightful

Tamales are Mexican Dumplings, good bye.

I love to put Gyoza in my Saimin (Ramen.)

Fun Fact: Here in Germany, our form of dumplings are called "Maultaschen". In swabia, where they originate, you can also find them beeing called "Herrgottsbesche*ßerle" which roughly translates to "to confuse god". This name came from the fact that like all christians you couldnt eat meat on sundays and by hiding it in between dough god cant see you eating meat and therefore, you have outsmarted god.

I have to eat dumplings if I watch this or I melt into a puddle

I found an interesting phenomenon! Chinese food abroad (especially in some Asian countries) can be claimed as their own if the taste changes slightly, whereas Italian pizza can be changed a lot and no one will claim it as their own food.

The narrator's chinese pronunciation is on point! 🔥

Now I want dim sum so bad.

I like that the comments are sharing dumpling stories.

Archeologists have found evidence of dumplings being eaten in China during the Tang dynasty and in Switzerland as far back as 3,600 B.C..
