Food Culture

Shrimp dumpling is beloved of most consumers as having dim sum in tea restaurants or Cantonese restaurants. Translucent wrapper made of wheat starch wraps up chopped shrimp and minced pork. Also, due to its clear, bright pleated skin, some people name it crystal dumpling. Fresh shrimp, tenderly chewy wrapper, and juicy stuffing, the relish of shrimp dumpling satisfies people's gustatory sense. Soy sauce is the most common dip, but some gourmands taste with shredded ginger like the way people taste mini juicy buns.
