Introduce
Xiaolongbao (小籠包) is a traditional Chinese steamed bun that is a popular dish in Taiwan. The buns are made with a thin, delicate wrapper that encases a savory filling of pork, crab meat, or other ingredients. The buns are steamed in a bamboo basket, which helps to maintain the delicate texture of the wrapper and the juicy, flavorful filling. When eaten, the wrapper is bitten or punctured to release the hot soup inside, which is then sipped before eating the rest of the bun. Xiaolongbao is considered a comfort food in Taiwan and is widely available in Chinese restaurants and street stalls. It is considered a must-try for those visiting Taiwan for the first time, as well as a popular dish for locals.
