小笼包, or "soup dumplings," are a popular type of Chinese dumpling originating from Shanghai. They are known for their delicate, thin skin and are filled with a mixture of ground meat, usually pork, and a flavorful broth. When steamed, the broth inside the dumpling becomes hot and savory, creating a delicious burst of flavor when bitten into. These dumplings are typically served in bamboo steamers and are often enjoyed with a dipping sauce made of soy sauce, vinegar, and sometimes ginger. 小笼包 are a favorite among many food lovers and are commonly found in dim sum restaurants and street food stalls across China and beyond.
