Method: 步骤

1. Mix (A) in a bowl, stir in (B) to form a dough and continue to knead for 15 minutes or until the dough is glossy and smooth.
将所有材料搅拌成团,揉15分钟或至面团光滑有弹性。




2. When the dough is ready, transfer the dough onto the tabletop. Take a small portion of dough and knead in some charcoal powder. Portion out the remaining dough, knead each individual dough into round shape. If the dough is too dry, add some milk when kneading the dough.
把揉好的面团先割出一小份加少许碳粉做黑面团,剩下的面团分割后每份搓圆。如果面团太干可加少许牛奶。





3. Wrap in char siu fillings. Repeat for all buns.
包入叉烧馅料。





4. Shape the bun as desired. Brush some milk on the bun to attach the facial details. You can refer here for detailed method.
分别造型。详细做法可参考这里




5. Let it proof for about 50 minutes or double in size and steam on high for 15 minutes. When it's done, turn off the heat, do not open the lid/ cover. Let the steamed buns rest in the steamer for 5 minutes before removing the buns from the steamer.
做好造型后发酵50分钟或双倍大。放进蒸炉大火蒸15分钟。 蒸好后熄火,待5分钟才开盖把包子拿出。待凉后即可享用。若喜欢我的食谱,可以LIKE和追随我的面书专页,不要错过最新食谱发布。
