Steamed Shrimp Balls are a delightful dim sum dish originating from Chinese cuisine, celebrated for their tender texture and delicate flavor. Made primarily from finely minced shrimp, these bite-sized morsels are often mixed with egg white, cornstarch, and mild seasonings to create a smooth, cohesive mixture. They’re typically steamed to retain moisture and highlight the natural sweetness of the shrimp. Rich in protein and low in fat, steamed shrimp balls are a nutritious choice for those seeking a lighter option, while providing essential vitamins and minerals like selenium and vitamin B12. However, depending on preparation, sodium levels may be a concern due to added soy sauce or seasoning. Pairing this dish with steamed greens or limiting high-sodium condiments can keep it heart-healthy and balanced. Perfect as a snack or appetizer, steamed shrimp balls offer both nourishment and a flavorful bite inspired by traditional Chinese cooking.
