Chaoshan crisp dumplings: looking for the taste of Mid Autumn Festival when I was a child

Introduction:

"When I was young, I liked to follow my grandmother. At that time, I lived in the courtyard. During the Mid Autumn Festival, there is a big table in the patio, which is filled with all kinds of fruits and cakes. After the worship, it is the happiest time for children. There are many pastries that they can't eat. After growing up, every family lives in a building. Although they worship the moon and enjoy the moon, the flavor of the festival is much lighter. Maybe it's because of the small family now, maybe it's because of the ready-made cakes. At the weekend, when brothers and sisters got together for dinner, they talked about the excitement and warmth of making crisp dumplings in the kitchen when they were young. The whole family began to fry peanuts and sesame seeds, make noodles and make crisp dumplings. Mom's crisp dumplings are the most beautiful, uniform in size, with beautiful wrinkles on the edge.
