Tu Mama Rice Dumplings Introduction
-Signature Dishes- Premium Sticky Rice Dumplings, Four-Ingredient Soup, Fish Ball Soup were originally made to supplement household income, leading to the decision to sell meat dumplings. Unexpectedly, dumplings with the "flavor of mom" became extremely popular, resulting in the transition from a pushcart to a storefront. Since the shop is located along the Hualien-Taitung Highway, it also gained free publicity from passersby. Tu Mama's Meat Dumplings strictly selects the glutinous rice from Guangshan and uses uncontaminated front leg meat from Hualien as the filling. The glutinous rice is steamed with Tu Mama's unique recipe of over 30 years, while the pork is braised with an exclusive secret sauce for two and a half hours. A touch of mushrooms and other spices are added to enhance the flavor of the filling, creating a distinct taste. Tu Mama's Meat Dumplings are first steamed before being filled, then wrapped and steamed, which gives them a fragrant bamboo leaf aroma. This method makes them softer and chewier compared to the usual method of frying them partially before steaming. Each grain is distinct, and drizzled with the shop's special sauce, paired with a bowl of soup, it offers a simple taste of home!
