About
Master the making of baos, which can be used with various fillings, some already in your repertoire.
Baos (Chinese steamed buns) have been enjoyed in Asia for hundreds of years, and their popularity spread to many other countries. These days, baos are popular menu items in diverse restaurants everywhere.
First, learn to prepare bao dough, from mixing and kneading to proofing, to achieve the perfect pillowy texture. Then practice rolling and shaping them, then steaming in a bamboo steamer. While the dough is rising, we’ll make the fillings: Five-Spice chicken, and a tofu version.
End the bao-making experience by enjoying the tasty filled baos, accompanied with pickles, spicy mayo, and a refreshing drink.
On the menu:
- Bao (steamed buns)
- Five-Spice Chicken with Sichuan peppercorns
- Tofu-Spice Chicken with Sichuan peppercorns
- Vegetable pickles
