Dim sum: The Cantonese tradition of small steamed, fried and baked plates (dumplings, buns, rice rolls, ribs) eaten with tea, traditionally as a brunch running from early morning to mid-afternoon. Plates of three or four pieces are shared family-style, so a table can try a wide range; many restaurants serve them from carts, and now also at dinner and for takeout. On this menu as: Dim Sum & Dumplings.
Siu mai: Open-topped steamed dumplings: a thin yellow or white wrapper gathered around a pork-and-shrimp filling, usually finished with a dot of crab roe, diced carrot or a single pea. With har gow, one of the classics of Cantonese dim sum. On this menu as: Shu Mai.
Black bean sauce: Salted, fermented soybeans (douchi), mashed with garlic and ginger into a pungent, savory sauce. Classic with clams, spare ribs, bitter melon and beef with peppers. On this menu as: Black Bean Spare Ribs.
