Those baos looked delish! I always order these at dim sum place. I couldn't find ammonia bicarb where I live, is there a substitute or could I leave it out? What is the purpose of bicarb? Do you have a recipe that does not use ammonia bicarb? Thanks for your response.

[@lingscookingescapade]

You can just omit the ammonia, not a problem 😉

[@apetlambinicio2611]

Hello new friend here from Philippines! Can i ommit the amonia bicarbonate? Can i put lye water?Thank you

[@lingscookingescapade]

Yes u can omit, thanks!

[@TheMaturestudent]

Thank you for sharing this recipe. May I please ask the brand of the flour you used? Thank you in advance.

[@lingscookingescapade]

Thanks for watching!🙏 Rose flour😉

[@TheMaturestudent]

@@lingscookingescapade thank you for your response.

[@summerholiday12]

Hi the bar dough looks so fluffy and soft, delish! Can you use self raising flour? What is low gluten flour? Not seen any in UK

[@lingscookingescapade]

Thanks for watching! I don’t use self raising flour for steam baos. Your can find low gluten wheat flour in oriental supermarkets in UK😉

[@tendue0726]

I think in the UK, it is called cake flour which the gluten ( protein) content is between 7-9 percent

[@borneogirlsp5439]

Hi, can you please convert the recipe measurement by cup? It would be appreciated. Can't wait to try them.

[@lingscookingescapade]

Thank you for watching! Go for it💪🏻Regarding the conversion,sorry I’m afraid I can’t fulfil your request because there’s no way I could convert 2 drops of lye water to a cup measurement.

[@TheMax200g]

What if you’re fresh out of ammonia bicarbonate and lye water? Any substitutes?

[@lingscookingescapade]

@@TheMax200g You can omit both of them😉

[@TheMax200g]

@@lingscookingescapade thanks so much for replying. I just made dumplings from scratch for the first time two days ago.. These buns look delicious! I was a little disappointed with the frozen buns I got from the store. I will try this recipe.

Bao looks so good😋
After wrap no need to left for proofing before stim?

Thank you! No need😉

[@asianfoodfusion959]

Hi, May I know if I could use bao flour?

[@lingscookingescapade]

Thanks for watching! Is your bao flour pre-mixed with other ingredients?

[@asianfoodfusion959]

It's just say wheat flour (gluten)

[@lingscookingescapade]

@@asianfoodfusion959 As long it’s low gluten wheat flour or it says bao flour it should be fine😉

[@syukranjeyaabdullah5305]

The folding pau part is very difficult for me!

[@lingscookingescapade]

Just make it round, don’t need to fold😉
