Trader Joe's · Frozen Meals
Soft pleated wrappers hold seasoned ground pork and a ginger-heavy broth that turns hot and soupy when steamed. Sold frozen in 6-ounce portions, these dumplings are based on xiao long bao, with a thin dough meant to contain the liquid filling without getting tough. Each tray goes from freezer to microwave or stovetop steamer, and the broth inside gets very hot fast, so a little cooling time helps. Within Trader Joe’s frozen lineup, they sit alongside other dumplings and gyoza, but the liquid center and stronger ginger note set them apart from the drier, pan-fried style.
