Need a bit of help with NYT Strands today?
Warning: Spoilers lie ahead for Strands #229.
And here’s an unofficial hint from me: “World cuisine.”
The spangram will give you a hint about the connection word.
Today, it starts with ‘D’ and ends with ‘S’.

So, what are today’s Strands answers for game #229?
Drumroll, hey…
…and the spangram was DUMPLINGS.
Strands #229
All wrapped up
Hi Strands fans.
Another tricky one this, at least in part due to geography.
Fortunately, my first answer was spelt out across the bottom of the screen: GYOZA.
When I connected DUMPLINGS, I was just expecting this to be another answer, rather than the spangram.
This certainly threw me when looking for the remaining answers in the top half of the grid.
I found RAVIOLI in the top left corner next (definitely not a dumpling to me!
), but then I was stumped and had to use a clue.
That revealed PIEROGI, leaving just the anagram of “ADNAEAPM” to decode.
After a short struggle, I realized it had to be EMPANADA.
