About Siumai
Siumai, also spelled shumai, is a type of steamed dumpling that originates from Chinese cuisine, particularly Cantonese dim sum. These bite-sized delights are typically made with a thin wrapper, filled with a mixture of ground pork, shrimp, mushrooms, and seasonings, though regional variations exist. Siumai is often topped with a garnish like a small piece of carrot or green pea for visual appeal. Nutritionally, they offer a good source of protein from the meat and seafood filling but can be high in sodium from added soy sauce and seasonings. The steaming method makes siumai a lower-fat option compared to fried dumplings, though pairing them with calorie-dense dipping sauces may add to their overall calorie content. Moderation is key when enjoying siumai as part of a well-balanced diet. Always check ingredient specifics if seeking a healthier or allergen-free version of this dim sum classic.
