The Perfect Dough
Ingredients:
3 cups of all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon of active dry yeast
1/4 cup of sugar
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of warm water
To begin, add all the ingredients into the bread machine pan in the order listed above. Active dry yeast is essential for providing the buns with a light and airy texture, so make sure to use it instead of instant yeast. Set the bread machine to the dough cycle and let it work its magic for about an hour.
The Filling
Ingredients:
1 pound of ground pork
1/4 cup of chopped green onions
1 tablespoon of soy sauce
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
1 tablespoon of hoisin sauce
While the dough is being prepared, it's time to make the filling. In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients listed above. The sesame oil and hoisin sauce add a distinct and delicious flavor to the filling. Mix until well combined.
Assembling the Buns
Once the dough is ready, take it out of the bread machine and knead it a few times on a floured surface. Roll the dough into a long log and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a small circle, making the edges thinner than the center.
Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle. Gather the edges of the dough and pleat them together, sealing the filling inside. Place the buns on squares of parchment paper and let them rest for 15 minutes.
Steaming the Buns
While the buns are resting, prepare your steamer. If you don't have a bamboo steamer, you can use a regular steamer lined with cabbage leaves or parchment paper to prevent the buns from sticking. Steam the buns for about 12 minutes, or until they are puffy and cooked through.
And there you have it, delicious Chinese steamed buns made with the help of a bread machine. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, or enjoy them on their own. These buns also freeze well, so feel free to make a big batch and save some for later. Enjoy!
