Chive & Egg Dumplings

What Are Chive & Egg Dumplings and How Are They Served?

Chive and egg dumplings — known in Chinese as jiucai jidan jiaozi — are a classic northern Chinese jiaozi variety filled with fragrant Chinese chives and scrambled egg, wrapped in a hand-folded wheat-flour skin. The combination is one of the most beloved vegetarian fillings in Chinese home cooking, offering a fresh, aromatic bite that pairs naturally with soy-vinegar dipping sauce.

Traditionally, making jiaozi from scratch is labor-intensive — requiring dough kneading, filling preparation, and precise hand-folding to achieve the signature pleated shape. Jinyi Food's frozen ready-to-cook chive & egg dumplings eliminate this workflow for commercial kitchens. Each piece is hand-pleated, flash-frozen to lock in filling moisture, and designed to cook directly from frozen by steaming, boiling, or pan-frying (as guotie / potstickers) — no thawing, no prep, consistent shape and taste every time.

Supplied in bulk to Chinese and Asian restaurant chains, dim sum programs, Asian supermarkets and retail freezer aisles, school and institutional catering, and ready-meal brands worldwide. OEM fillings (pork & chive, shrimp & chive, vegetable, etc.) and custom sizes available on request.
