Overview

I had never been able to make dough well in the past, but I was craving for steamed buns, so I often went to the steamed bun shop downstairs in the early morning. Later, I finally learned how to make dough, and mixed it with my favorite fillings. It was finally a complete success O(∩_∩)O

  3. While the dough is fermenting, you can start making the filling. Stuffing the pork belly can be done at any place that sells meat. Add onions, ginger, minced garlic, a little soy sauce, cooking wine and pepper, then add a little salt, beat an egg and stir in one direction

  4. Add some pork skin jelly into the stuffing. The pork skin jelly is a thick soup made with meat skin and large bones and can be refrigerated to solidify. If you find it troublesome, you can buy it in the supermarket. If you don't add the meat skin jelly, the soup won't be able to fill it up, but it should taste good. This is fermented dough with honeycomb on it
