About Dim sum prawn dumpling

Dim Sum Prawn Dumplings, also known as Har Gow, are a classic dish in Cantonese cuisine. Originating from Southern China, these delicate dumplings are a staple of traditional dim sum meals. They feature a translucent, slightly chewy wrapper made from wheat starch and tapioca flour, which encases a filling of finely chopped prawn seasoned with hints of sesame oil, ginger, and sometimes bamboo shoots or water chestnuts for added crunch. Prawn Dumplings are steamed, preserving their moist texture and subtle flavors. Nutritionally, they are a good source of lean protein from the prawns, which are low in fat and rich in essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, selenium, and Vitamin B12. However, these dumplings can be high in sodium due to seasoning and sauces, and the wrapper contributes refined carbohydrates. Ideally, enjoy them as part of a balanced meal to savor their healthful and flavorful qualities in moderation.
