Method

Dough Preparation

1

Activate Yeast

In a small bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

2

Mix Dry Ingredients

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

3

Combine Ingredients

Add the activated yeast mixture and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.

4

Knead Dough

Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

5

Let Dough Rise

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

Filling Preparation

6

Mix Filling Ingredients

In a bowl, combine ground pork, soy sauce, sesame oil, chopped green onions, minced ginger, minced garlic, sugar, and black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined.

Assembling the Buns

7

Divide the Dough

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 6 equal pieces.

8

Shape the Buns

Flatten each piece into a circle about 4 inches in diameter. Place a generous tablespoon of filling in the center of each circle.

9

Seal the Buns

Gather the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal tightly. Place each bun seam side down on a parchment paper square.

Steaming

10

Prepare Steamer

Set up a steamer pot with water and bring it to a simmer.

11

Steam the Buns

Carefully place the buns in the steamer, making sure they do not touch each other. Cover and steam for about 15-20 minutes.

12

Check for Doneness

The buns are done when they are puffed up and cooked through. Remove them from the steamer and let them cool slightly before serving.
