Steamed Pork Buns

I realize it's been over 2 months since I've posted. Work is ridiculous and even though I continue to cook and cook and cook I haven't had the chance to upload the pictures and recipes of everything I've done since then. I have a lot of pics to catch up on over Christmas. I've been trying to cook new foods the past few weeks, mainly different cuts of meats that I tend to avoid.

This summer we went to Momofuku in Manhattan and they had AMAZING steamed pork buns. I wanted to recreate these after that day.

Here is the recipe I used for the buns (pics will hopefully soon follow) and then I cooked a pork tenderloin for the first time and it also turned out great. That is the delicious filling.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup bread flour
• 2 tsp yeast
• 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tsp oil
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp baking powder

Directions:

• Mix everything in a bread maker and let rise.
• Form into balls
• Cover in light dust of flour
• Steam in steamer for 6 minutes

Cut in half and serve!
