Chinese Fish Cake is a delightful dish made primarily from surimi, a paste derived from fish, often combined with egg whites, starch, and various seasonings. Hailing from traditional Chinese cuisine, these cakes are commonly found in dim sum and street food markets. They’re typically steamed or pan-fried, giving them a crispy exterior while remaining moist and tender inside. Packed with protein, they offer a healthier alternative to fried snacks, although they can contain added sodium and preservatives. Enjoyed as a savory treat or added to soups, Chinese Fish Cakes are a flavorful way to experience the essence of Chinese culinary tradition.
