Squid dumplings are a seafood-filled delicacy commonly found in East Asian cuisine, particularly in Chinese and Japanese cooking. These dumplings feature a tender wrapper made from wheat flour, enclosing a flavorful filling of finely chopped squid, garlic, ginger, and green onions. The combination is often seasoned with soy sauce, sesame oil, and a hint of white pepper. Squid is a low-fat source of protein, rich in essential nutrients like B vitamins, selenium, and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health. The dumpling's thin wrapper keeps the calorie count reasonable; however, serving methods can impact healthiness. Steaming is the most nutritious option, while frying adds extra fat and calories. Squid can also be high in cholesterol, which may be a consideration for some diets. Pair these savory bites with a side of vegetables for a balanced and delicious meal.
