About Lo mai gai

Lo Mai Gai is a traditional Cantonese dish featuring sticky glutinous rice steamed in lotus leaves, often served as part of dim sum. The rice is typically mixed with ingredients like chicken, Chinese sausage, dried shrimp, and shiitake mushrooms, all seasoned with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and other savory spices for a rich, umami flavor. Originating from Chinese cuisine, this dish is widely enjoyed for its fragrant aroma and satisfying texture. On the nutritional front, Lo Mai Gai offers a good source of protein from the chicken and shrimp, along with vitamins and minerals from the mushrooms. However, it is also relatively high in carbohydrates and sodium due to the glutinous rice and seasonings used. Its calorie content can vary depending on preparation, so it’s best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
