Mama Tu's Rice Dumplings Introduction
-Signature Dishes- Premium Sticky Rice Dumplings, Four Gods Soup, Fish Ball Soup. Initially intended to supplement the family income, the decision to sell meat dumplings led to great success with the "Mom's Flavor" dumplings, prompting a shift from a pushcart to a brick-and-mortar establishment. The shop's location along the Huadong Highway made it convenient for passersby and provided free publicity. Tu Mama Sticky Rice Dumplings carefully selects glutinous rice from Guangshan and round glutinous rice, with filling made from uncontaminated front leg pork from Hualien, mixed and steamed with Tu Mama's unique recipe cultivated over 30 years. The pork is marinated in a proprietary braising sauce for two and a half hours, combined with a hint of mushrooms and other seasonings for a fragrant meat filling that tastes distinctively different. Tu Mama Sticky Rice Dumplings are steamed first, then filled, and steamed again to capture the aroma of the bamboo leaves, resulting in a chewier texture compared to the typical pre-fried dumplings. Each grain is clear and distinct, and when drizzled with the shop's special sauce and paired with a bowl of soup, it embodies a simple taste of home!
