Squid Ink Dumplings and Burger
Squid Ink Dumpling
We have been having a lot of Dim Sum during this Chinese New Year period. At the one of the places that we visited I had the chance to taste a squid ink dumpling at the Yum Cha restaurant in Chinatown. It tasted like a regular steamed dumpling just that the skin was black.
Salmon Burger
If steam dumplings are not to your fancy how about a tasty Squid Ink Salmon burger? It makes a light lunch snack and you can get it from Tiong Bahru Bakery at Raffles City Basement.
Have you ate any squid ink food before?

Wow, thanks for this post. Looks interesting. The squid dumplings caught my fancy but I think the salmon burger is somewhat more delish. I wonder how both taste like. Makes me hungry! Wehe! 🙂

Wonder if there is any benefit eating the ink? Saw cuttlefish ink pasta in Ma Maison but didn’t try

I wouldn’t mind eating the squid ink dumplings, pero the burger looks really unusual. How does it taste like, Dominique?

It taste like a normal burger. I only notice the smoked salmon taste for it.

Does it taste nice? Or rather does the ink has any taste? The look is quite intriguing though I may not have the courage to eat it.

I doubt the ink has any taste just a coloring for the food.

the squid ink salmon burger looks strange! LOL
i’m a bit confused–the bread on this burger was flavored with squid ink?
i’d love to try the squid ink dumpling.

@Luna,
I think it was coloured with squid ink for the Blackness.. it taste like a normal burger to me.

Way to be adventurous! I love dim sum, but not so sure about the squid. 🙂

Very interesting! The only squid ink I’ve tasted would only be adobong pusit and bihon negra yum yum!
