      They were allowed to do any flavour, the only thing that was meant to be Japanese, was the steamed buns, which obviously, is the issue, since it is Chinese.
      They didn't think that India is the same as Japan. They just chose an Indian filling.

      With in reason you can? White beans actually hold a lot of different flavors really well. Green tea, coffee, chocolate just plain old red beans are good. They also have pizza buns over there as well as chestnut and probably a few other super experimental flavors because it’s Japan and they do that, a lot.

      I would have made a pizza one. Creative by GBB standards, but relatively standard in Japanese convenience stores, so there is some authenticity. Also since the Japanese word for steamed buns is “man,” a pizza one is a “pizza man” and I just can’t resist that.

I have made a lot Japanese food with Japanese ingredients over the years and even made homemade ramen which took 2 days to make plus steamed pork buns to go on the side of that.

    “饅頭(manjyuu)” might be the steam bun traditionally eaten at japan, although similar things are found in China too. They even share the same Chinese characters because it originates from China, but it came in Japan at around 1200 A.D. so they did develop differently. Sweet red bean will basically be the only filling since we didn’t eat meat (one of the big difference with the Chinese ones).
    “酒饅頭(Saka-Manjyu)” is my favorite. Uses Japanese Sake lees to ferment the dough, so there is a slight smell of sake when steamed. Warm and delicious.
    And no, we do not fill it with pork or curry😂

If only we had such magic. Or we could call up our Japanese friends with another magical device where we could talk into it and our Japanese friend with a similar device heard what we say.

      Agree with hypotalapotamus. I feel she's a good baker.

The theme was CNY so maybe the judge expecting sometime more to the CNY celebrations instead of a Chinese take out restaurant?
      I don't know how Chinese in other country celebrates their CNY but in my country or maybe I should say in my family, we don't really use fortune cookies in any occasion? I've been celebrating CNY since little and I've never seen fortune cookies in anyone's house. Not many Chinese restaurant that I've been to have fortune cookies. They normally give us wet tissues or herbal sweets XD

      They could've go for melon bun or "dorayaki" style for Japanese week, but as proven British people are not so 'cultured' (Hahaha sorry Brits we still love your fish and chips)
      So use wisely. Search out how we Asians use your ingredients. You might wow us Asians one day.

    And yeah. Steamed buns are much more chineese than japanese. However they do still make them and eat them regularly. You can often find buns like pizzaman, really good. The best buns i know are the bao buns with fatty pork or spicy chicken (local items).
    The more common curry buns are actually deepfried bread with curry inside of them. Really fucking tasty but can also be a real hit or miss depending on the maker. Had some of the best ones in the Tokyo station, made with spicy curry and thick pieces of meat

  • @jessiec668
    @jessiec668 Год назад +2

    I dunno, my experience of both eating and researching nikuman is that Japanese people are willing to try a lot of different things as filling, beyond the traditional pork or chicken. Pizza sauce and cheese, seafood, curry, taco meat, squid ink, etc... And even sweet fillings like red bean paste, cream, green tea paste, etc. Making the bun into cute shapes isn't unheard of either... Different convenience store brands have done Hatsune Miku buns and Hello Kitty buns. I'm sure there's even more varieties that I'm totally unaware of.
    That being said, yes it would have been nice if they had chosen a different type of food that is more unique to Japan. Taiyaki or an pan would have been good choices. Or at the very least, use the Japanese words for what they were making besides just "buns" and maybe explain the history/cultural context a bit more.

    I agree to people saying they should have called it Asian week or actually done some traditional Japanese desserts/food. I understand why the bakers tried to make the buns cute since Japanese sweets and bakeries always have adorable animals and bears and things, but I think they probably should have focused on the buns themselves.
