Them Balls

Last time I ate dim sum in NYC I neglected to take a photo of the best part. But this time I did not forget! Here they are, hot fried glutinous rice balls (about the size of small apples) covered in sesame seeds and filled with sweet bean paste. These are the apex of deliciousness. The dim sum lady with the dessert cart snipped them in half with some scissors. (ouch!)



The photo really doesn't do them justice. If you've never tried these, make for your nearest dim sum resto and grab some balls!
