Method

  1. 01

    Step 1

    2 tablespoons of flour

    Step 1
  2. 02

    Step 2

    2 grams of yeast

    Step 2
  3. 03

    Step 3

    Dissolve the yeast in half a bowl of warm water ( 4 -inch bowl). Kitchen novices can dissolve it in a small amount of water; if there isn't enough water while kneading the dough, they can add more water.

    Step 3
  4. 04

    Step 4

    Pour the yeast water into the flour.

  5. 05

    Step 5

    Mix until it forms clumps. The dough for steamed buns should be firm, and the water content must be carefully controlled; it should just be enough to form a ball.

  6. 06

    Step 6

    Knead into a dough, cover with plastic wrap and let it rest 20 minutes. It's okay if it's not smooth.

  9. 09

    Step 9

    Divide the dough into equal portions. (This makes exactly 6 steamed buns.)

    Step 9
  10. 10

    Step 10

    Knead the dough into smooth dough balls, making sure the dough balls are relatively tall. After kneading the last dough ball, knead all the dough balls together again to ensure they are the same size.

    Step 11

    Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for about 35 minutes, until it rises to 1.5 to 2 times its original size.

    Step 11
  12. 12

    Step 12

    Place the pot in a steamer with cold water and steam for 12 minutes after the steam rises. After turning off the heat, let it sit for 3 minutes before uncovering.
