The Shumai

Ajinomoto Frozen Foods' "The Shumai" is a large portion of frozen yaki-sai that is juicy and succulent in the mouth when you bite into it.

The tray inside can be detached into three pieces. They can be heated in a microwave oven without wrapping. The heating time is indicated on the back of the package according to the number of pieces.

How does The Shumai taste?

The Shumai is a large size that is easy to bite into. When you bite into it, you can enjoy the juices from the pork. The soft skin and the crunchy bamboo shoots add a nice accent to the dish.


The rich flavor of the scallion oil and the richness of the XO sauce makes this dish delicious even when eaten as is. Of course, you can also dip it in soy sauce! The spicy sauce goes well with the meaty taste. It was an excellent product as a side dish for rice or as a snack.
