It’s been a while since lil’ bun and I have made Asian inspired delights but it’s Lunar new year so we figured that it was about time to make traditional steamed buns. We ventured into one of mother deer’s recipe books for this Black sesame steamed buns. Even though we never made steamed buns before, we actually found the dough to be quite manageable.
You can make these Black sesame steamed buns savoury by filling them with chicken or sweet by filling them with custard.
We decided to fill half of ours with red bean (brother deer’s favorite) and leave the other half plain (for a savory taste). If you aren’t a fan of filled buns, you can always leave them plain and make them mantou! My favorite way to eat mantou has got to be with condensed milk and just thinking about it makes me nostaligic!
Another popular lunar new year treat are rice cakes! These can be prepared baked or cooked on the stove top! Here are a few of my favorites:
