Ponzu Sauce for Steamed Buns Ponzu Sauce for Steamed Buns
My home is in Hakata, Kyushu (southern Japan). The steamed buns sold at convenience stores there come with a vinegar soy sauce and Japanese mustard.When I moved to the Kanto area and found that steamed buns aren't eaten this way, I was very surprised. That is why I want to share this recipe with you.You can tear open the bun and pour in the sauce, or put the sauce on a small plate for dipping. The bun is very tasty if it soaks up the sauce.Try cooking frozen buns by passing them through a stream of running water before wrapping them in plastic, without sealing the wrap. This will produce moist and fluffy buns. Recipe by Remonja. cookpad.japan
