Vietnam Savory Dumplings - Banh Bot Loc Good day, everyone! As we celebrate the official launch of Thien Ly Danang-style's website, I would like to talk about Vietnam savory dumplings which are otherwise better known as the much-beloved Banh Bot Loc. What's a good way to start if not by talking about everyone's favorite appetizers? Vietnam, Thailand, and Indonesia are among the very few countries in Southeast Asia that are known for their variety of street food. Vietnam, in particular, is famous for its diverse and balanced cuisine such as Pho and Banh Mi. As one walks across any market street, you can find in Vietnam, you will always be surprised with new discoveries of food. Some cuisines come in tiny sizes while some are rather large in proportion. Most importantly, a majority of these street foods are colorful enough to attract someone's attention even from a distance. One of the street food, in particular, is Banh bot loc -- small translucent-Esque savory dumpling that is stuffed with all kinds of fillings. It is chewy to the bite and usually served with sweet chili fish sauce. This dish is said to have originated from Hue, a city that used to be the imperial capital of Vietnam during the Nguyen dynasty. The fillings of the common Banh bot loc varies depending on the recipes used. However, it is usually filled with shrimp and pork belly and often garnished with fried shallots. For a fancier and luxurious version, some may include thinly sliced chili, coriander, mushrooms, as well as onions. The preparation of this dish is not limited to just a singular method. Banh bot loc can either be steamed or boiled with an optional step of taking it further through the usage of banana leaf as its wrapping. It is interesting to note that the name for this dish would be slightly different when the wrapping of the banana leaf is involved. If the dumplings are not wrapped with banana leaf, it is called banh bot loc tran, and such is also the case if this dish is wrapped with banana leaf, thus giving its name to banh bot loc la. What makes banh bot loc truly a favored dish among many would be none other than its rich flavor which is uniquely created through the combination of various fillings into small bite-sized appetizers. If you ever have the chance to come across Vietnam cuisines, the banh bot loc is definitely a dish that you must order.
