About Steamed dou miau

Steamed Dou Miau, or pea shoots, is a popular dish in Chinese cuisine celebrated for its light, fresh flavor. This leafy green vegetable is often prepared simply, steamed to preserve its natural sweetness and delicate texture. Sometimes garnished with garlic, oil, or a pinch of salt, it is a low-calorie side dish packed with nutrients. Dou Miau is rich in fiber, vitamins A, C, and K, as well as essential minerals like iron and magnesium, supporting healthy digestion, immunity, and bone health. Its minimal preparation avoids excess oil or additives, making it a heart-friendly option. While generally healthy, sodium levels can increase depending on seasoning choices like soy sauce. Dou Miau is a versatile plant-based dish that complements both traditional and modern meals, offering a delicious and nutrient-packed addition to balanced eating.
