A: Can you tell me how to make dumplings?
A: 你能告诉我怎样包饺子吗?
B: My pleasure. First of all, pour water into the wheat flour, and stir it until it becomes a piece of dough. Also get some filling ready. It can be vegetables or meat.
B: 我很乐意。首先倒些水到面粉中，然后搅拌，把它拌成一个面团。同时准备好一些饺子馅，馅可以是蔬菜也可以是肉。
A: Then what should I do with them?
A: 然后我该怎么做呢?
B: Cut the large piece of dough into many small pieces, roll the dough with a rolling pin into round, thin wrappers.
B: 把面团分成一个个小块儿，用擀面杖把它擀成一个圆而薄的饺子皮儿。
A: How thin should the wrappers be?
A: 饺子皮儿应该有多厚呢?
B: It's up to you. You only need to make sure that the dumplings won't burst when you boil them. But many people like thin wrappers. Then put the filling in the center of a wrapper and fold it up. The last thing to do is to boil them. In northern China, dumplings are dipped in vinegar and soy sauce, and often eaten with a piece of raw garlic.
B: 这取决于你。你只要保证煮熟时饺子不破就行。可是许多人喜欢皮儿薄一点。然后把馅放到皮儿中，把它包起来。最后一件事就是把他们煮熟。在中国北方，人们通常把饺子蘸着酱油和醋吃，同时还吃大蒜。
