Which country did jiaozi originate from?

Jiaozi originated in the Eastern Han Dynasty in China and was initiated by Zhang Zhongjing. At that time, jiaozi was used as a medicine, and some cold-dispelling herbs were wrapped on the dough, which could avoid frostbite of patients' ears after eating. Later, people imitated the method of making charming ears and made food, which is our present jiaozi.

During the Three Kingdoms period, jiaozi has become a kind of food, known as "Crescent Wonton". This kind of food is mentioned in the book Guangya written by Wei.

By the time of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, wonton had been "shaped like a crescent moon, and it was delicious all over the world". Presumably, when jiaozi cooked it, he didn't take it out and eat it alone, but put it in a bowl with the soup, so people called jiaozi "wonton" at that time. This way of eating is still popular in some areas of China. For example, when people from Henan and Shaanxi eat jiaozi, they should put some small ingredients such as coriander, chopped green onion, shrimp skin and leek in the soup.
