Types of dumplings in China

Prior to my arrival to China, I only knew about wonton and jiaozi, which I assumed to similar to pelmeni.

As it turned out, there is no end to the variations of dumplings, so here are some of the most common dumplings in China that I've come across so far!

饺子 - jiǎozi These are thin veggie or meat filled dumplings, and they can be steamed, boiled or fried but I've only tried the steamed variety so far which is pretty tasty. They somewhat resemble pelmeni, but the tast is noticeably different.

馄饨 - húntún (wonton) These dumplings are similar to jiǎozi but thinner and they're usually eaten in soup.

生煎包 - shēngjiānbāo These are slightly crispy, fried dumplings usually with a pork-filling。

锅贴 - guōtiē These dumplings are the crispy-ish type, deep-fried and steamed with various fillings like veggies and meat.

水饺 - shuǐjiǎo They're quite similar to the 锅贴, but these dumplings are boiled (note the 水) without the frying.

小笼包 - xiǎolóngbāo These are steamed buns, usually filled pork but they can also have other fillings like veggies and seafood.

Honourary mentions： These aren't dumplings, but they're adjacent enough imo.

肉包子 - ròubāozi These are biggish steamed buns with a meat filling. I have these for breakfast and they're really good.

菜包子 - càibāozi Same as the ròubāozi, but with veggies and also pretty tasty.

If I missed any, let me know which ones as I'm always looking to try new things!

Kompot Processing Stove

I started this project back in April ... I'm beyond happy that I'm finally ready to share it with you guys!

BASE GAME COMPATIBLE

Description:

Kompot Processing Stove is a large appliance that can be used to make specific types of preserves - Kompot and Condiments (Mostly Easter Europen/Balkan traditional condiments).

**Kompot or compote is a non-alcoholic sweet beverage that may be served hot or cold, depending on tradition and season. It is obtained by cooking fruit in a large volume of water, often together with sugar as additional sweetener. Kompot is part of the culinary cultures of many countries in Central, Eastern, Southern Europe and Middle East.

It can be found in buy mode under Stoves. It costs 1200$.

When you press on the object you'll see 2 options to 'Make Kompot' or to 'Make Condiments', each will open a selection menu and you can choose from a variety of preserves.

You need cooking skill to unlock new recipes.

At L1 you can make 8 different types of Kompot, at L5 are unlock seven new kompots, and at L7 the condiments are unlocked!

You can make in total 15 kompots and 10 condiments.

Each process creates a box with the particular preserve, the box can be sold for profit, enlisted on plopsy or it can be opened. One box contains 6 jars.

All jars can be sold for profit or enlisted on plopsy. The food doesn't spoil.

Kompot jars can be opened and you will receive 4 bowls of kompot. It's better to keep them stored in the fridge.

Condiments jars - your Sim can eat straight from the jar, or open the jar. Once opened, the jar gives 6 plates with condiments on toasted bread. Keep them stored in the fridge.

There are a few buffs when your Sim consume the preserves and when your Sim works on the stove.

There are a few free spots on the stove that you can decorate if you'd like. Each preserve has optional ingredients, if you have the needed ingredients it's free, otherwise, you can just pay.

Optional Ingredients:

Icemunmun's: Apricot, Cranberry, Mango, Peach, Plum

BrazenLotus': Celery, Red Bell Pepper

PiedPiper's: Nectarine

Indoor Harvestable Cornichon

Indoor Harvestable Red Chili Pepper

Garlic (Vampires GP)

Bell Pepper (Seasons EP)

Raspberry, Blueberry (Cottage Living EP)

Srsly's Cooking Overhaul

I want to say a huge THANK YOU to Mirai, who helped me tremendously, to understand better the code and fix the enormous amount of LE errors! Without her help, I'm not sure when and if this mod would have ever been possible!

P.S. This mod was inspired by my home region, and I wanted to implement the Slavic culture into the Sims. However, if you want more varied preserves, I can recommend you to try Icemunmun's Canning Station which contains numerous types of preserves, if you didn't try it yet!

DOWNLOAD (Early Access)

Public Release on 5th of November

Asgardian, Vanir, Alfheimr, Olympus, Talokanil, Wakandan and Nidavellir cuisines in MCU HCs

Basically, Asgardians eat a mixture of Ancient Nordic, Medieval and Renaissance European foods

Since it is a colder planet in comparison to Alfheim, Asgard has a number of stews and roasts

Bread and potatoes are literally staples amongst Asgardian cuisine

Oh, and seafood is a popular culinary choice in Asgard too

One of Loki's fave foods is salmon stew btw

In MCU, Vanir cuisines are actually a mix of Central Asian, Slavic, Mongolic and Far East Siberian cuisines

Yeah Vanir culture has some nods to Central Asian, Slavic, Mongolic and Far East Siberian cultures in MCU btw

So the Vanirs LOVE dumplings, stews, LAMB AND MUTTON PREPARED IN ANY WAY, and a hunch of dairy in breakfasts

Light Elven cuisine of Alfheim basically has several nods to Mediterranean and Balkan cuisines

Basically it's got a hunch of fruits and vegetables, sweets and baked treats being VERY popular in Alfheim, and edible flowers are also popular in Alfheim too

Breakfasts are at times served in little trays of breakfast goods with fruit/floral scented tea or coffee ( imagine like an Ottoman style breakfast )

A popular street food includes hand pies of different flavours - sweet, savory, spicy, etc

Also a cultural drink of Alfheim is actually wine - as in different types of wine, not just wine made from grapes ( and the Light Elven grown ups in general LOVE to drink wine )

Dwarven cuisine in Nidavellir basically has a mix of elements of Germanic and Slavic cuisine

Being a more blacksmith geared culture, the Dwarves in general usually eat protein and dairy often as a way to sustain themselves in blacksmith relater stuff ( especially for Dwarven blacksmiths )

The Dwarves in general love a good drink - a cultural drink of Nidavellir is actually beer ( and the Dwarven grown up in general drink A LOT beer )

Wakandan cuisines defo has nods to East African and Nubian cuisines

Wakanda is rife in spices, and alcohol is popular for grown ups in Wakanda in general

Teas and coffees are popular in Wakanda too, amongst the staples of Wakanda include beans and maize

Olympus cuisines are defo have nods to Ancient Roman and Grecian cuisines

Olympus is rife with olives and fruits and vegetables - and the Olympus grown up residents in general LOVE wine

Oh and they also love cheeses ( which is a popular desert in Olympus )

Talokanil cuisines defo have nods to Mayan cuisine

Since they are an underworld kingdom, Namor's family actually managed to figure out underwater agricultural and all And underwater food supplies

Seafood is rife in Talocan, and ofc edible seaweeds and corals are amongst popular cuisines in Talocan

Amongst staples of Talokanil cuisine include maize, chili peppers and beans

And coffee and chocolate drinks are amongsr popular drinks in Talocan

🤩🤩🤩🥺🥺🥺

Desserts in China

There's quite a large variety of treats and desserts in China (more than you can imagine), so here are some of the most common ones!

Almond jelly/tofu - 杏仁豆腐 - xìngréndòufu Despite the name, almond jelly doesn't actually have almonds in it. Almond jelly is made from gelatin and almond milk, although some recepies use dairy milk instead.

Glutinous rice balls - 汤圆 - tāngyuán These rice balls are made from glutinous rice balls with a sweet filling, such as red bean paste (a pretty popular filling in desserts, I've been fooled more than once when purchasing what I assumed to be a chocolate filled pastry).

Red bean buns - 豆沙包 - dòushābāo One of my favorite desserts so far. These are steamed buns with a sweet red bean paste filling that I'd definitely recommend.

Egg custard bun - 流沙包 - liúshābāo A sweet and savory bun, with a lava-like egg yolk filling. A pretty interesting dessert, as it's both sweet and savory.

Pumpkin cake - 南瓜饼 - nánguābǐng I haven't tried this yet, but it definitely looks good. A fried and crunchy cake with a sweet filling such as red bean paste.

Eight treasure rice pudding - 八宝饭 -bābǎofàn This is a pretty popular dessert, especially during the Lunar New Year. It gets this name becase of the toppings, which are eight or more different types of dried fruits and nuts arranged on top of the sweet rice, with (once again) red bean paste.

Hawthorn stick/ Candied Haws/ Sugar coated haws/ Bingtanghulu - 冰糖葫芦 - bīngtánghúlu This treat has quite a few translations and you may have probably already seen it. This is basically candied fruit covered with a sweet, crunchy and sugary syrup. Traditionally, Hawthorn is used but other fruits such as grapes, strawberries and oranges are also popular options.

Sachima - 沙琪玛 - shāqímǎ I haven't tried this snack yet, but it looks quite fascinating. Sachima is made from fried batter stuck together with a sugary syrup, with an interesting texture.

Sesame balls - 芝麻球 - zhīmaqiú Similar to the rice glutinous balls, this treat is also made from glutinous rice flour with varying fillings including lotus seeds, mung bean and red beans, and sesame seeds.

Water chestnut cake A sweet pan-fried cake made from chinese water chestnut, with a unique semi-transparent appearance.

Wintermelon puff/ Wife cake/ Sweetheartcake - 老婆餅 - lǎopóbǐng This cake has many names, mainly because it has several different origin stories, each more fascinating than the next. This dessert is a flaky pastry with wintermelon, almond (not red bean this time!) paste and sesame filling.

Fortune cake - 发糕 - fāgāo Not a fortune cookie! This is a spongy steamed cupcake cake commonly made for the New Lunar Year celebrations and occasionally other events. They're usually a white-ish or brown-ish color, but they're often dyed bright colors to add extra festivity.

Mooncake - 月饼 - yuèbǐng This is a pretty well-known dessert, commonly prepared for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Mooncakes are smallish steamd/fried (depends on the region) cakes with a sweet filling that can also sometimes have an egg yolk inside.

Osmanthus cake - 桂花糕 - guìhuāgāo This is a unique traditional pastry made from glutinous rice flour, honey and osmanthus. This cake has a really interesting texture, as it's quite dense but also airy in a way? I'd definitely recommend trying it, as it's not super sweet and goes really well with tea.
