The Delicious Loh Mai Kai (Chinese Dim Sum)

Bundled pork, mushroom, (possibly shiitake mushroom), black eyed peas in glutinous rice. Delicious parcels of food wrapped in bamboo leaf, in this case, presented to me by friends. Thank you πŸ™ 😊 so much.

This is dim sum had during tea time. A tea time delicacy.

Here’s what I uncovered online about Loh Mai Kai:

β€œLo mai gai[a] (Chinese: η³―η±³ι›ž; Cantonese Yale: noh mΓ‘i gāi), literally “glutinous rice chicken”, is a classic dim sum dish served during yum cha.[1] The portion size of lo mai gai is generally quite large, so there is a smaller variant created known as jan jyu gai(Chinese: ηη ι›ž; Cantonese Yale: jān jyΕ« gāi; lit.’pearl chicken’).”
