Fluffy Steamed Meat Buns, Handmade Dough Just use Cake Flour
- 300 grams Cake flour
- 40 grams Sugar
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 tsp Dry yeast
- 2 tsp Baking powder
- 1 tbsp Skim milk powder
- 150 ml Lukewarm water
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 50 ml of milk + 100 ml of warm water *If you don't have skim milk powder
- Combine the flour, sugar, salt, yeast, baking powder, and skim milk in a bowl.
- Mix them together, then add in enough of the warm water to bring the mixture together into a dough.
- Once you can bring the dough together, add in the vegetable oil, and knead the dough until the surface becomes smooth and elastic.
- Cover the dough with a damp tea towel, or spray with water and cover with plastic wrap before setting the dough to rise for about 30 minutes.
- When the dough has roughly doubled in size, gently remove the dough and place it on your work surface.
- Divide the dough into portions according to how many buns you want to make.
- #Keep the dough moist with a spray bottle or damp tea towel during this process.
- Don't let it dry out.
- Form each piece of dough into a ball, and flatten it into a disc with a rolling pin.
- Add the filling and wrap it up in the dough.
- Here you want to make the center of the dough a bit thicker than the edges, otherwise the juices from the filling may leak through.
- Set the finished buns on some parchment paper, and line them up in a steamer, leaving space between the buns so that they don't stick together.
- Spray the buns so they do not dry out, and leave them to rise for about 15 minutes.
- Once they have finished rising, steam the buns over boiling water for 15 minutes (high heat).
- Once the buns are steamed, you are done!!
- !
- If you do not have a steamer basket, you can steam these buns in a pot.
- Just be sure to place a tea towel between the top of the pot and the lid, and to leave the lid a tiny bit open.
- This will keep the buns from getting too wet.
