About Soon kueh

Soon Kueh is a traditional Teochew dumpling originating from Chinese cuisine, particularly popular in Singapore and Malaysia. Made with a thin, translucent tapioca and rice flour skin, it encases a savory filling of julienned turnip, bamboo shoots, dried shrimp, and sometimes mushrooms or minced pork. Steamed to perfection, Soon Kueh boasts a delightful chewy texture and fragrant aroma. Nutritionally, it offers fiber from the turnip and bamboo shoots, while dried shrimp provides protein. However, its refined flour casing contributes mainly carbohydrates, and some versions may include added oil or higher sodium levels, depending on seasoning. Often enjoyed as a breakfast or snack, Soon Kueh can be a relatively light option when paired with healthier dips like soy sauce or chili vinegar. Its balanced mix of vegetables and lean protein makes it a wholesome choice in moderation, especially when prepared with minimal added fats or salts.
