The recipe is very simple. The dough is kneaded to have a translucent texture like watery skin. After steaming, it will rebound quickly when pinched. It is chewy enough to pull out threads when bitten. The wheat aroma becomes stronger and stronger in the mouth. Don't worry if you don't have a watery face. Take a bite of this "reflective" chewy steamed bun. Who would want those "puffy" steamed buns that are supported by additives~ 😆

I love making high-hydration doughs, especially for bread—they turn out as soft as little lambs. (I used 625g of flour to make 14 buns.) The aroma while baking is impossible to hide; neighbors often come knocking to ask when the bread will be ready. (Next time, I’ll try a butter version.) I prefer savory bread, so I use less sugar and a bit more salt.

Turnip cake is a classic Hong Kong dim sum dish, and many families make it at home, especially during the Chinese New Year. The radish cake has a soft and glutinous texture and a strong aroma of cured meat. It has a unique flavor when served with soy sauce or sweet soy sauce. This traditional radish cake is mainly made of white radish, sticky rice flour, Chinese sausage, bacon, mushrooms and dried shrimps. It can be enjoyed directly after steaming, or it can be sliced and fried to add a layer of flavor.
A mouth-watering Indonesian snack, made from grated and mashed sweet corn, then mixed with spices such as shallots, garlic, and curly chilies. The dough is enriched with eggs and wheat flour, resulting in a texture that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The natural sweetness of the corn blends harmoniously with the savory spices, creating a distinctive and alluring taste. Often served as a complement to main dishes or afternoon snacks, it is delicious eaten with chili sauce or shrimp paste sauce.
