About Xiao long bao

Xiao Long Bao, also known as soup dumplings, are a beloved delicacy originating from Jiangsu province, China, particularly Shanghai. These small, delicate dumplings feature a thin, pleated wrapper made from wheat flour, encasing a flavorful filling of seasoned ground pork or other meats, along with a rich, gelatinized broth that melts into soup when steamed. Traditionally, the dumplings are served hot with a side of vinegar and ginger for dipping. Nutritionally, Xiao Long Bao provides protein from the meat filling, but its healthiness depends on portion size and preparation. The thin wrapper contributes carbohydrates, while the inclusion of broth adds depth without significant calories. However, they are relatively high in sodium due to the seasoning and broth. While not particularly calorie-dense, moderation is key, as their deliciousness can make them hard to resist. Perfect for a treat or part of a balanced meal, Xiao Long Bao embodies both taste and craftsmanship.
