About Shu mai
Shu Mai, also spelled siu mai, is a traditional Chinese dumpling commonly served in dim sum. Originating from Cantonese cuisine, it is a small, open-faced wrapper filled with a flavorful mixture of ground pork, shrimp, mushrooms, and seasonings. The dumplings are steamed, creating a tender texture and allowing the rich flavors to blend beautifully. Shu Mai is often topped with a garnish like a single pea or a pinch of roe for added visual appeal. Nutritionally, Shu Mai provides protein from the meat and seafood, along with vitamins and minerals from the accompanying vegetables. However, it can be high in sodium and fat depending on the recipe, so portion control is recommended. While relatively low in calories per piece, moderation is key to balancing their indulgent taste with healthy eating habits. Shu Mai reflects the artistry of dim sum and is a delightful treat in Chinese cuisine.
