I could eat dim sum every day.

I thank my Cantonese mom for instilling a love of dim sum in me early on.

Some Costco shoppers have found these for as low as $10.

So, I was pleasantly surprised by these dumplings.The skin was spot onperfectly chewy, albeit a little thick.

The shrimp filling was also just rightumami-rich with crispy shrimp bites and minced bamboo shoots.

Theyre always snatched up in New Jersey and New York.

Mom spends a month on the East Coast every summer, so she knows about the Costco scene there.

Chatting with people on social media, I discovered these dumplings have a cult following on Costco Facebook groups.

So we skipped the soy ginger sauce, which Mom said tasted like sweet and sour sauce.

She couldnt stop raving about them.

Theyre better than in some dim sum restaurants!

Write about these, she told me.

Jake, my husband, also enjoyed them.
