What’s your favorite Lunar New Year dish? Do you have any quirks or tips for preparing it? In recent years, our good friends Joanna Lee and Ken Smith (translators of the annual Pocket Chinese Almanac) have come to our home to host a dumpling-making party, to which we invite our neighbors. So homemade dumplings have become the dish that characterizes the holiday for us. One has to resist the temptation to put in too much filling, or the dumplings are less likely to hold together during the cooking process.
How will you be celebrating the Lunar New Year differently this year? We won’t be able to throw our usual dumpling-making party with friends and neighbors, but still plan to make dumplings for two at home. What are some of the Lunar New Year traditions that you always stick to, and why? I was born in Los Angeles, where I grew up as part of an extended family of evangelical Christians. We didn’t celebrate Lunar New Year; in fact, I never even knew when the holiday was happening, except that sometimes, my relatives would say, “We can’t go to Chinatown today because it’s New Year’s and the place is going to be so noisy with fireworks!” In high school, my Chinese American girlfriend and her family did celebrate Lunar New Year, so I started to learn some traditions. She taught me that you’re not supposed to wash your hair on New Year’s, a practice I still tend to follow … unless I forget.
