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 -
Steamed Pork Buns with Rice Flour for Wheat Allergies Steamed Pork Buns with Rice Flour for Wheat Allergies
Today's school lunch was steamed pork buns!Since my child has food allergies, I try to recreate the same lunch meal prepared at school, so that he eats the same food as his classmates.Dust your hands with rice flour (not listed) to form the buns. Since the dough isn't as elastic as wheat flour dough, you won't be able to make a fancy seam, but be sure to tightly secure the edges.It's easy if you use a spoon to place the filling on the dough.The rising time depends on the season, so be sure to keep your eye on them.

Focaccia Croque Monsieur Bread Focaccia Croque Monsieur Bread
I like soft focaccia, so I always add skim milk powder to the dough. I thought that if I added cheese too it would be even more delicious and tried it out.If you like rich food, use 2 slices of cheese per piece. You can also try adding lots of bechamel sauce. But make sure you can seal the doug. If the sauce is too runny, it's hard to seal the dough, so it should be stiff enough that it doesn't run out. Recipe by Pu-kosan -

She in turn taught me how to make them..that's how this family tradition has progressed.Please adjust the amount of water depending on the season. In the summer you'll need a little less than 160 ml.If the dough is too soft, leave it in the refrigerator for a while and it will become firmer.You can let the dough rest for up to a day with no problem.When testing the boiled noodles for doneness, make sure to refresh them in cold water first. The noodles will firm up again. For 3 servings. Recipe by Tenju
