Most Chinese dumplings are made with wheat wrappers, but in Fujian, southeastern China, there’s a dumpling with a rice skin. We went to Fujian to learn about how the Hakka people there make rice bao.

This is the fifth episode in our ten-part series about baos in China. In the next episode, we’ll go to Xinjiang, where we’ll learn how baked baos are made. Stay tuned!
