Bāozi (Chinese steamed buns)

Ingredients

  • 500 g (4 cups) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp active dry yeast
  • 300 ml (1 1/4 cups) warm water
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 300 g ground pork
  • 100 g napa cabbage, chopped
  • 2 scallions, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Knead the flour, yeast, sugar, 1 tsp salt and warm water into a smooth dough. Let it rise for 1 hour.
  2. Knead the risen dough again and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
  3. For the filling, mix the ground pork, napa cabbage, scallions, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, salt and pepper.
  4. Roll each piece of dough into a flat round. Place about 2 tablespoons of filling in the center, gather the edges up over the filling and pinch them closed.
  5. Set each bun on a square of parchment paper so it doesn't stick to the steamer.
  6. Bring a pot of water to a boil and steam the buns for 20 minutes.
  7. Let the buns cool for a few minutes before serving.
