Chinese New Years Eve dumplings in Beijing

It is traditional to eat jiaozi or dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve...and most people gather with their families and eat many, many jiaozi. On the morning of Chinese New Year's eve, the friendly staff at the lovely Beijing hutong hotel, Courtyard 7, were starting to make "hendou" (many) dumplings. I filmed a little and then helped out, though they would widely only let me knead and roll the dough. No filling or closing for me
