About Dim sum

Dim Sum is a traditional Chinese cuisine consisting of small, bite-sized dishes typically served with tea. Originating from Guangdong province, Dim Sum encompasses a variety of items, including dumplings, buns, rolls, and steamed or fried snacks. Common fillings include minced pork, shrimp, chicken, and vegetable combinations, often seasoned with soy sauce, ginger, or sesame oil. Dim Sum offers nutritious options—steamed dishes like shrimp dumplings or vegetable buns provide lean protein and vital vitamins. However, fried varieties and those containing high-fat meats or sugary sauces may be less healthy due to added calories and saturated fats. Portion control is key. With diverse ingredients, Dim Sum can cater to various dietary preferences, but individuals should be mindful of sodium levels often found in sauces. Overall, Dim Sum offers a flavorful and communal dining experience blending balance and indulgence.
