Shu mai is a main staple of yum cha, and is found outside of the traditional yum cha setting. It is very popular here in Japan as well, and you can purchase fresh or frozen shu mai at the grocery.
Shu mai are pork and mushroom dumplings steamed in a flour wrapper and topped with fish roe or carrot. Savory and juicy, these shu mai also had pieces of shrimp inside.
