looking for a cheap, casual meal or a hangover cure. &nbsp;Khinkali are somewhat similar to xiaolongbao, or&nbsp;Chinese soup dumplings, but there are differences too. &nbsp;Khinkali are made with flour dumpling wrappers. &nbsp;They are folded in such a way that they have little dough handles at the top. &nbsp;To eat khinkali, hold the dumpling by the handle, flip it bottom side up, and take a small bite out of the dough just large enough to slurp the soup before devouring the rest of the dumpling. &nbsp;The handles aren\u2019t meant to be eaten, though we were told that caused quite a problem during the Russian occupation as the Russians thought this was wasteful and prohibited the import of flour, which meant a lot of sad Georgians with no khinkali. &nbsp;While in China you enhance the flavor of soup dumplings with vinegar; in Georgia you douse them with a lot of black pepper. &nbsp;If your dumplings get cold because you are eating too slow or talking too much, you can ask the waiter to have them reheated and they won\u2019t think less of you for it.<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\"
