No music. No nonsense commentary. Thank you, more than you know.
I really like Michael Lim's video. I prefer no annoying music, just plain clear instruction. Thanks Michael.
Very important tip: Make sure, when rolling the baozi dough into a circle, fold it over itself again. The dough gets tight, but this is good. Then, add the fillings and etc. this is so that the baozi doesn’t get all wrinkly when it’s steamed, and it stays a perfect fluffy shape.

My little sister has been away at university and has been having a difficult time adjusting and dealing with roommates, so I've decided to surprise her and make some of these. Whenever we went through Little Korea or Chinatown she would beg to go to the bakeries. I only have a makeshift steamer that I rigged up, in which I can only make 1 bun at a time, but I took out the first one and it looks perfect!!! Once it cooled, I pulled it open and voila! It looks just like it does in your video! I never ate them when we went out, as I have allergies and I didn't know if I could have any of their ingredients, so I don't know if it tastes like the ones she's used to, but it still tastes great!! My parents and I devoured it within moments and I have no idea how I'm going to keep them away until my sister gets home. Thank you so much! Next time I plan on trying a custard or bean paste filling

Does that mean your grandchildren suck? I'm confused
While I recommend more precise measurements for those of you who just don't do mass and metrics: (as near as makes no difference) 4 1//3 C flour 3.5 tsp yeast (one packet has 2 1/4 tsp so this is about a packet and a half.) salt and baking powder are the same...(don't know why they don't do that in grams... ;-) 2.5 Tblsp sugar (granulated - finely granulated if you can find it but not powdered) 1 Cup + 1/3 cup + 1 Tblsp milk 2 Tblsp Vegie oil These are VERY close to the metric amounts - as noted, should be as near as makes no difference.) --- But I recommend getting a scale that measures in many unit systems... there are dozens cheap iin your store or amazon...

This is by far the best steamed bun recipe I’ve tried. Thank you.
So simple but amazing result ! Thanks Michael. This is the recipe that I am looking for.
I'm so glad I found your recipe video! My friends would always have these buns packed in their lunches when I was in elementary school and they ate them all the time at home so they'd always give them to me. I used to love them and I'd definitely like to try them out to see if they're as enjoyable as I remember.
I just made these, and they turned out spectacular, thank you. Just gave some to my grandma too!!

Writing from Calgary, Canada. I used my Kitchen Aid food processor which allows max of 3 cups, so I mixed mine in two batches adjusted the liquid just a touch and both batches came out excellent. I then followed your hand movement and combined the batches and my dough looks as smooth as yours. Now I waiting for it to rise. Thank you so much for encouraging me to use my Kitchen Aid to make dough for the first time. Your video took the guess work out and empowered me during this quarantine period.

When I was in my early teens my sister would go to the asian market and come back with frozen "flower buns" and steam them. they were so delicious. I have no clue where she got the idea to try them. Well now there are no markets around me, so I want to make them. This looks so easy to make.. thank you!!

I ate them a lot when I lived in Milan. Bought one or two when passing through the Chinese part of the city. Pretty cheap and also delicious
Thanks vou for the recipy. I tried today and it was perfect!! So fluffy! Thank u!!
I am actually amazed at how similar these are to buns/dumplings we make here in Czech Republic.
This dough bakes really good as well. Especially with some egg wash (I did 350 F or 180 C for 25 minutes). Very light and fluffy. I filled mine with red bean paste and chocolate chips, and they came out amazing!
Simply beautiful! No talking makes it even better. Thank you for sharing! 😍

Do Rémi As someone who’s grown up eating this stuff, put some sweet red bean paste or a thick custard ( things like Ube is also really good but harder to acquire) inside, it’s like a softer, better doughnut. It’s also good dipped in custard if filling it is too hard.

I think it really pissed me off when he put the dough on the table without flour and it didn’t stick. Perfect Recipe

When I made these buns today, I also thought the dough would stick to the counter top. But it didn’t. If you follow the recipe exactly as it is given, it won’t fail. I believe the 6 minutes of kneading with the dough hook in the mixer is what gives that elasticity to the dough causing it not to be sticky. Great recipe 👍🏾
@thechasebake3604
5 жыл бұрын
It is actually the hydration of the dough as well as the kneading that keep the dough from sticking. This dough is 54-57% hydration, which is very low compares to most breads. Less water = less sticky, and subsequently easier to work. This is why I often recommend for beginners to try lower hydration breads first. This recipe is greatly for people new to baking.
