What Does the 🥟 dumpling Emoji Mean?

A crescent-shaped dumpling with a pleated edge, drawn to suggest a boiled or steamed wrapper. The design is deliberately generic so it can stand for jiaozi, gyoza, pierogi, momo, empanadas and a dozen other filled parcels, since nearly every cuisine arrived at the same idea independently and none of them agreed on a name for it. Dough wrapped round filling turns out to be a solution the whole world found separately.

About dumpling Emoji

Usage: Food posts use it across an enormous range of cuisines, which is unusual for a single character. Lunar New Year content uses it heavily, since jiaozi are eaten then for their resemblance to old ingots. Restaurant and recipe accounts reach for it constantly, and it rarely needs explaining.

Encoded in Unicode 10.0 in 2017 after a formal proposal argued that no existing character served the world's filled dumplings. Jennifer 8. Lee and her collaborators wrote it, and they deliberately pushed for a shape generic enough to cover many traditions at once.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of dumpling is 🥟?

Deliberately none in particular. The shape was designed generic so it could stand for jiaozi, gyoza, pierogi, momo and many others rather than favouring one tradition.

Why are dumplings eaten at Lunar New Year?

Jiaozi resemble old Chinese ingots, so eating them is associated with prosperity. Families often fold them together on the eve, which is as much of the point as the food.

Who proposed the dumpling emoji?

Jennifer 8. Lee and her collaborators, who argued that a food eaten almost everywhere had no character at all. It was approved for the 2017 release.
