Dim Sum is comprised of a large range of small Chinese dishes served in Cantonese restaurants. Har Gow is a type of shrimp dumpling made with semitranslucent wraps and has become one of the most popular Dim Sum dishes. Har Gow has now become more and more popular in the Western countries; they are not only being served in restaurants, but Har Gow is also sold in supermarkets and online stores. Recently, similar types of dumplings have been introduced but are made with tofu and vegetables instead of shrimps, catering to the growing population of vegetarian and vegan consumers.
