Cooking Instructions
- 1
Make the dough. Warm the water to body temperature, sprinkle in the dry yeast and sugar, and let it sit for 10 minutes.

In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and the baking powder. Pour in half the yeast mixture and mix it briefly by hand. Add the rest of the mixture and mix evenly.

Once it comes together, add the vegetable oil and mix until smooth. Wrap it with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a double-boiler until the dough becomes 1.5-2 times its original size.

Make the fillings. Finely chop the onion and microwave until tender. Leave it until cool.

In a bowl, add the ground pork and the A ingredients, and mix well until sticky. Add the katakuriko and onion and keep mixing.

When the dough is done rising, punch down and cut with a knife into 4 pieces. Roll each dough into a ball, cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Divide the filling into 4 portions. Wrap it with the dough and close the seam tightly. Place the dough onto parchment paper cut into 8 cm square.

If you have time, leave the dough to rest for 15-30 minutes at room temperature, while keeping it from drying out. They'll become more fluffy.

Juicy Nikuman (Steamed Pork Buns) in a Bread Maker Juicy Nikuman (Steamed Pork Buns) in a Bread Maker
I was just thinking that I hadn't made nikuman for a while. My goal was to make pork buns similar to those from a particular famous restaurant in Osaka, but these came out so juicy that they're more like jumbo-sized soup dumplings! Super tasty though!!You can also mix and knead the dough by hand rather than in a bread maker. If you roll the dough circles too thin, the moisture inside the buns will leak through, so be careful of this. Be sure to pinch the buns very tightly closed. Instead of onions, you can finely chop about a 10 cm section of the thick white stem part of Napa cabbage leaves. With this substitution it won't be as sweet and the flavor will be milder.

Nikuman (Meat-Filled Steamed Buns) at Home Nikuman (Meat-Filled Steamed Buns) at Home
I revised a recipe I learned 10 years ago at a cooking class. It's very easy, so when my children were small I used to make them like a maniac all the time. These days I'm into Chinese food again. I suddenly got the urge to eat these steamed buns, so I made them.If you make the edges of the rolled dough thinner than the middle, the dough won't be thick enough to stick together. There's plenty of filling, so if you have leftovers, make another batch of buns. The buns will have a nicer finish if you roll out the dough with a rolling pin rather than just flattening them by hand. The dough is very sticky after the first rising, but coat plenty of flour on your hands to work and cut it. Recipe by Pokuchan -
Puffy Steamed Nikuman (Meat Filled Bao or Buns) Puffy Steamed Nikuman (Meat Filled Bao or Buns)
These nikuman have fluffy and light yet still nicely chewy dough, and a ginger-scented filling. If you wrap them this way it's easy and the results are very neat.http://blogs.yahoo.co.jp/aigomi2087This method makes dough that is light and fluffy even when the room temperature is below 25°C, so in the summertime the pre-proofing step is not necessary. You can just mix all the ingredients up at room temperature.It's probably not possible to steam the buns all at once, so you can steam half and pan fry half to enjoy the buns in two ways.

551-Style Steamed Pork Buns 551-Style Steamed Pork Buns
A friend taught me how to make these buns. I've adapted the recipe slightly, and have been making it for years.I've always made my own steamed pork buns, so my daughters didn't know until recently that they sell steamed buns at convenience stores.You don't need to let the dough rise completely like when making bread.If you get filling on the seams (edges) of the dough, the buns won't close up properly, so be sure not to overfill them.If you don't close up the buns securely, they'll open up while steaming, so do be sure to pinch them completely closed. For 8 buns. Recipe by nattsu47
