Trader Joe’s Product Reviews – YEA/NAY/MEH – 2025 Edition

Totally forgot I had bought two new dim sum type items
– Vegetable duplings (in a crystal dumpling type wrapper)
– Shrimp noodle rolls (which I thought were cheung fun, but instructions were to pan-fry, but on eating they are definitely cheung fun)

YEA to both, which was unexpected.

The veg dumplings are a bit doughy on top, but the filling is perfect and the skin is actually nicely textured. I would pan-fry / steam them next time, instead of just steaming.

The shrimp rolls are cheung with different cooking instructions so the wrapper doesn’t become a sticky mess. There are 2 small shrimp, which is not enough, but there is a well-flavored veggie mixture too, which makes up for that. The noodle texture holds up remarkably well.

Don’t know if they’ll stick around.
