Where do soup dumplings ("xiao long bao") come from? Are they originally from Taiwan or from Mainland China?
Yum, that sounds delicious! Are there any notable variations of xiao long bao?
Yes, there are actually many variations of xiao long bao depending on the region. For example, in Hong Kong there is a shrimp dumpling version called har gow, and in Taiwan there is a spicy version called "Szechuan-style" xiao long bao which contains chili oil.
