Siumai, from scratch - How to Make Cantonese Dim Sum style Siu Mai (烧卖)

How to DIY
Published on Oct 20, 2021
Siumai, one of my favorite dim sum dishes. Known around the world as Shaomai, Shumai, or Siomai... this dim sum is stuffed with pork and shrimp, and topped with shrimp and roe.

We wanted to show you how to make this dish from scratch, Siumai wrapper and all. You obviously don't need to do that part if you don't want to - feel free to use store bought wonton wrappers in a pinch.
As always, here's the link to the detailed written recipe and ingredient list over in /r/cooking:

We're Steph and Chris - a food-obsessed couple that lives in Shenzhen, China. Steph is from Guangzhou and loves cooking food from throughout China - you'll usually be watching her behind the wok.

This channel is all about learning how to cook the same taste that you'd get in China. Our goal for each video is to give you a recipe that would at least get you close to what's made by some of our favorite restaurants here. Because of that, our recipes are no-holds-barred Chinese when it comes to style and ingredients - but feel free to ask for tips about adaptations and sourcing too!
