Did you Know?
In China, potstickers were prepared before the New Year celebration. Before the advent of refrigeration, these potstickers were stored in earthen jars, and kept outside. These jars are frozen during the winter. After New Year’s, the potstickers would be cooked in boiling water, without being thawed.
On the New Year’s day, it was considered bad luck to cut or chop, because that would represent cutting your up coming good luck. That is why the potstickers would be prepared beforehand. Having a hair cut on New Year’s Day was also considered to be bad luck.
