Sauerkraut and beef buns

Sauerkraut and beef buns

Overview

I remember once eating steamed buns stuffed with pork and sauerkraut at a friend's house in Northeast China, and I could never forget the taste. The stuffing is not particularly sour, but has a slightly sour taste and the chewy taste of sauerkraut. I can't stop eating it. It feels like it's not greasy even with fattened meat. Today I tried to use beef with sauerkraut and add an appropriate amount of fungus and vermicelli to make the filling. It tastes better and is more nutritious.
