It can be part of a meal, a snack, an addition to potlucks, picnics, parties and even funerals.

Thanks,Kip. Now you and Crys can make it yourselves.
I could live happily live on char siu bao and dan tat .
I experimented with many online manapua recipes and discovered that the Pickle Lady’s recipe was by far, the best because it came closest to the best manapua anyone can buy in Hawaii. The texture of the bun was superb. I followed the instructions but added extra flour during the dough cycle on my bread maker. The added flour was necessary because the dough wasn’t manually kneaded with extra flour as illustrated in the video This recipe is a keeper. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

Big thanks for this fabulous recipe for pork buns, Hawaiian style! Takes me back to the island. It's so delicious!!! I thought I was just lucky when it turned out so good my first time. By the third time, the recipe was so true!!! Now, for my large family, I make buns twice a week. If I don't, the grandkids will think I'm Ill. Now, I ask them to help me, amd some will. It's a ohana moment!!!

Yes, he had a stick across his back with 2 hanging cans filled with goodies as he chimed, "manapua, pepeau". We all remember the good ole days. Too bad our kids have no idea what fun times we had with all the simple toys and games we had because there was no internet and cell phones. Try making my simple char siu, guaranteed to taste better that the store. It has more than a quarter of a million views. Then you can make the bao.

Request #1: How do you make the rice cake (the layered one with the brown layer on bottom?) I been looking for it’s recipe but haven’t found it yet. Request #2 … the original old time tea cookie or cake. My hometown Kalihi with a Chinese store at the corner of Gulick and School street called “Chun Lee Tong” always had those tea cookie, so soft and so delicious. Do you also have a recipe? Been craving for these two old time favorites. Also, if I wanted to steam the Bao, what would be the timing for steaming? Mahalo for all you do sharing precious recipes of growing up days.... been following you for a week now and have discovered awesome memory days recipes. Mahalo plenty! Will be using your recipes to the hilt here in Las Vegas, NV. Aloha!

Thanks for your comments. No one makes the 9 layer cake anymore, it's too time intensive. I probably have a recipe for the tea cookie someone gave me a long time ago. I will have to try it out and put it on my to do list. New Lin Fong on upper Maunakea above Hotel Street and on the mauka side makes the best rice cake, white with holes from yeast. They sell tea cakes but not like the crispy edges that I grew up with. Also have large almond cookies (I have a recipe for flaky almond cookies on the website). Lin Fong has downsized quite a bit and used to be the only store that made all the cakes and specialty items. Their location used to be the large store on Maunakea across the lei shop. The steamed bau can be cooked for about 15 minutes but it's a different dough, no eggs, so it's white. Need to work on that one too.
I love watching you❤❤❤❤❤ you da best
Thank you for the awesome simple recipe. Have always wanted to make this and char siu but never had the inclination to do it because all the complex ingredients I thought it would require.
