i saw dumplings today at the chinese provision shop at Broadway, and immediately i bought three, my favourite ones are the yellow original ones, where u dip it with sugar, i bought two of those and one savoury one so i could have them for dinner, and the sweet ones for teatime!
this is the first time i am having Australian made dumplings, not as rich or meaty as those in Singapore though, somewhat it is lacking in flavour, few key ingredients were missing, no roasted chestnut, no triple belly pork (the more fatty the better), no chinese mushrooms, 2 pathetic small dried shrimps only (i think dried shrimps are very important to bring out the rusty fishy flavour). But something unique was that they mixed the yellow beans with the rice, those in Singapore usually have the beans with the meat, i reckon the yellow beans are Tau Suan beans, gives that added texture to the sticky-ness of the glutinous rice.
Despite so much lacking, i am still glad that at the very least, i could savour dumplings like all of u back home, enjoying dumplings with your family! i miss home..
