This was our first time getting these at Trader Joe’s and we
were happy with the purchase. They are
little frozen chicken and veggie dumplings that you heat and eat. I cooked them using the “steam” method listed
on the box, though you can also just bung them in the microwave.
They come with a very nice sauce – mostly soy but a bit of
rice vinegar taste to it, too. It’s a
wee bit tricky if you do not eat them all in one sitting, because the sauce all
comes in one packet. There are 18 pieces
per box I think, so for two people that was a bit too many for one meal. When we cooked the rest of them another day
David had to whip up a bit of sauce (not to worry, he enjoys making
sauce!).

They remind me of going out on a Sunday for dim sum – tasty
little morsels. Only, they are much more
reasonably priced than any dim sum restaurant you could ever go to.

Note: I have not
mentioned this in previous reviews, but Trader Joe’s does a fun little thing
with naming products – this one is made by “Trader Ming’s”. Often “Joe” will be replaced by a name that
matches the culture the food comes from.
Keep your eye open for that if you haven’t noticed it before – some of
them are quite sweet.
Price – $2.99
