Happy Friday everyone! Traditionally, Char Siu Bao needs several days to make. We’ll do it in just a few hours. No Mother dough or ammonium bicarbonate is required in this recipe. This is a simplified homemade version. It's easy and delectable! Written recipe: cicili.tv/steamed-bbq-pork-buns-recipe/
i have seen many dim sum recipes....and i think on this the best thing i have seen is the way of pinching the bun off, is a really neat way for beginners...the hold and pinch small bits to make a small funnel shape takes some skill, so for beginners this method , is probably alot easier :)
@@CiCiLi the only thing i would add, is that if the dumpling dough is abit dry it might be worth some water/egg wash around the edges to help give some suction when you press it , to help the seal, lest it pop open during cooking?
i think cake flour it’s just for cake.. now i finally found the whiter dough for bao.. thank you cici for always sharing your talents in cooking please dont be tired to translating your recipes in english.. thank you 😊
What I love about making this at home is that buying ready made ones usually means too much fat or gristle on the pork. Plus your version means the pork filling is far more generous :)
Hi CiCi, try mix the lye water after the final dough rest so the alkaline can neutralize the yeast flavour, if so the yeast will fluff your dough even better, good luck pretty.. 😃
Thanks! Sure you can eat it with eggs, milk, soy milk, or other dim sum dishes. For more dim sum recipes please click here 😊👉Dim Sum Recipes, CiCi Li - Asian Home Cooking ruclips.net/p/PLn4pJAij_vmhKNKBubA595eOzVqb673ol
Hi Ninia, thank you for the question! Lye water helps to neutralize the acidity in the dough and acts as a leavening agent. If you really can’t find it, you could skip it also. Ammonium carbonate is another great leavening agent, but I didn’t use it in this recipe. Good luck and have fun!
Thanks for letting me know! I'll change the list on RUclips asap. It's 1/4 teaspoon lye water. Here's the written recipe cicili.tv/steamed-bbq-pork-buns-recipe/
Super excited for this one. I just got a new steamer and I've been wanting to make steam buns, but I've been intimidated. I'm sure CiCi will make it look easy :)

hi cici im just wanna ask what’s the purpose of lye water for the dough? thank you 😊

Tenk yuo 🛎🛎🛎🥰👈
Thank you! :)
Looks amazing!! but where do you find aluminum free baking powder and lye water?
I got mine in a Chinese supermarket. You should also find them on Amazon. Thx so much for stopping by! ☺️
Nay ho! How about stuffed green peppers? Lo bot go?
Hi Cici, your written recipe doesn't mention the use of lye water and the vinegar. I'm about to give it a try today :-)
Thank you for noticing it. I just edited it. Thanks a lot and have fun making them today! :)
you said lime or lye water in the video but how much? it's not in the ingredients list
Thanks for letting me know! I'll change the list on RUclips asap. It's 1/4 teaspoon lye water. Here's the written recipe cicili.tv/steamed-bbq-pork-buns-recipe/
