Nanxiang Steamed Pork Dumplings

  Nanxiang Steamed Pork Dumplings (Nanxiang xiaolongbao) are a traditional snack of Nanxiang Township in Shanghai's suburbs and can be found all over Shanghai. These dumplings are made with a thin skin of dough and stuffed with a seasoned minced pork. The dumplings are then steamed in a bamboo steamer. Note that these dumplings are wrapped and sealed differently than other dumplings like jiaozi.

We recommend taking a bite to let the juices cool. Otherwise, the juices could burn your tongue or spill out on you. Then one can dip the dumpling into the dark Chinese vinegar provided to cool the dumpling to an appropriate temperature.

In the city, there are two famous places to get Nanxiang Pork Dumplings. One is the area around the Yuyuan marketplace, while the other is the snack restaurants at the intersection of Tibet Road and Yan'an Road near People's Square.
