When I was younger I have always seen these giant pork steamed buns on sale at the grocery store. I don’t remember eating them much, but they always look delicious! I’ve been making these steamed buns for quite a while now. It is possible to make the awesome buns without using the Asian flours in the bag that they sell at the grocery stores. The bun is soft and fluffy. It is super delicious with the fillings inside.

Dough:

• 1 pack Dry yeast (about 2 1/4 tsp)
• ¼ cup water
• ½ cup Warm milk
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 2½ cups All purpose flour
• ¼ cup Sugar
• 1½ tsp Baking powder
• 1½ tsp Salt

Fillings:

• 1/2 lb Ground pork
• 1 tsp Salt
• 2 tbsp Hoisin sauce
• 1 tbsp Oyster sauce
• 8 Boiled eggs

Instructions:

In a small bowl, add water and yeast together. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes.

Add warm mix and vegetable oil to the yeast mixture.

In a large bowl stir the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together.

Stir in the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients. Knead the dough until it’s soft and smooth.

Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it sit for an hour.

Add salt, hoisin sauce, and oyster sauce to your meat.

Boil 8 eggs for 10 minutes. Peel the eggs and cut it in half.

After an hour, split the dough into 16 balls. Roll the dough flat.

Put the egg and meat filling on the dough.

Wrap up the dough over the fillings. Pinch the ends together at the top.

Steam the buns for 30 minutes.

Let it cool for 10 minutes and you’re done. Enjoy!
