There are many people can not tell the difference between pot stickers and fried dumplings, think that they are the same, and some places even call pot stickers fried dumplings, but in fact, the production method of the two is essentially different.
The biggest difference between fried dumplings and pot stickers is that fried dumplings need to be fried before boiling, or boiled after frying, in short, there is no need to cook this process.
When you hear Shao mai (also spelled siu mai and shumai), you may think of steamed yellow skin dumplings, commonly found in pastry shops. There is actually another version called Shanghai Shaomai with glutinous rice inside. It’s just as delicious and can be easily vegan, just as I’m not eating pork here (mushrooms and bamboo shoots add plenty of umami and meatiness). The shape of Shanghai Shaomai is very unique, like a vase, round at the bottom, thin in the middle and wide at the top. From the side, the top looks like a bouquet of flowers. To form this shape, the circumference of the wrapper needs to be thin and frilly.
Shaomai was originally a traditional snack in Beijing. But now you can see it being used as a dim sum in Cantonese cuisine. Or you can find it sold as a staple at many breakfast stands. Variations of siu mai also exist in Japan and other Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia, the Philippines and Vietnam. This is a delicious snack that is popular all over the world.
Although there are varieties of shumai, the appearance of shumai is quite alike.The main difference in shaomai is the filling, which varies from region to region. Generally, the stuffing in northern China is mainly mutton, beef or pork. Hohhot shaomai is a typical shaomai. The filling is mainly mutton, scallions and ginger.
In the south, the filling is mainly glutinous rice. Glutinous rice is usually served with a variety of vegetables, pork, shrimp, crab meat and even egg yolks. Vegetables can contain corn, mushrooms, carrots, peas, bamboo shoots, Onions and so on. The most famous shaomai in the south is Guang-style shaomai, which consists of minced pork, small whole or crushed shrimp, shiitake mushrooms, scallions and ginger, served with rice wine, soy sauce, sesame oil and chicken broth. It’s a must for Cantonese dim sum.
In some restaurants, you will find a green dot or a red dot decorated on the top of each siu mai. The green dots are usually peas, and the red dots may be goji berries (goji, goji or goji) or diced radish. Crab roe and egg yolk can also be used to decorate the top of the shaomai. Crab roe is often used as a decoration for Cantonese siu mai. In the famous Hunan chrysanthemum Shaomai, yellow petals are formed from broken egg yolks.
