“The dumpling – soft and fluffy, light and delicate, and filled to bursting in whatever guise – has gone from comfort food to cult status.”
“The verdict? A resounding yes. These are mesmerising little parcels of fragrant, ethereal beauty and wonder. While Xiao Long Bao are not new to the UK’s culinary scene, it’s the delicacy and consistency of these perfectly formed dumplings bulging with minced pork belly that makes them so sought after: expertly pleated, twisted and folded at least 18 times with utmost precision to let the steam escape.”
