Dishes
Red Bean Sesame BallRed bean sesame balls are a traditional Chinese dessert made with glutinous rice flour for the outer skin, filled with sweet red bean paste, and coated in black sesame seeds. The process involves mixing glutinous rice flour with water to form a dough, dividing it into small portions, wrapping each with red bean filling, shaping into balls, rolling them in sesame seeds, and deep-frying until golden and crispy.
Mushroom DumplingsXianggu Cai Bao is a Chinese dim sum dish made primarily with mushrooms and greens. The filling consists of diced mushrooms and chopped vegetables wrapped in a dough, then steamed to perfection, releasing a delicate vegetable aroma and the unique flavor of mushrooms. During preparation, the mushrooms and greens are first stir-fried and seasoned before being encased in the dough and steamed until fully cooked.
