In a recent E-mail, a friend (hi, Katze!) recently mentioned "pearl meatballs" to me.  Pearl meatballs? What be those? She described them, and that so intrigued me that I searched up a recipe and made some the next evening I had enough time for experimental cooking.

So, here we have the dim sum dish "zhen zhu wan zi," aka pearl meatballs, which look more like albino hedgehogs than pearls. Basically, it's ground pork with some other ingredients like green onion and water chestnuts, rolled in glutinous rice and steamed. Tasty! With this is The everpresent broccoli and an pan.

Wanna talk about it?
