    I have never bitten into a cloud filled with tender succulent meat
  • Shout out to all you folks who can't afford a mixer and do everything by hand. Our wallets may be thin, but our forearms be thiccc!

    I'm making this for my boyfriend (it's his birthday) and this is one of the most labor intensive things I've cooked in a very long time. My bbq pork is done, I'm waiting for that dummy thicc dough to get done rising, and I am so excited. Update: these are awesome!!! Thank you so much for this recipe!!!

    You deserve best cooking show award or whatever it is. you're probably the only American food YouTuber who uses the metric system as well as anything else. Edit: binging with babish is also cool and he doesn't throw it back every video nowadays

    Do we let him think that we’re actually cooking with him? Or do we tell him we’re all just watching this in bed at 3 am with no intentions of eating anything better than ramen tomorrow
  • This video cost me about $600, after buying dough mixer, accessories and ingredients. Needless to say, I was super excited to try this at home. End result was 🔥!

    You can fold them into semi-circles and steam them without any fillings and use them like slider buns. I like to fill them with pieces of fried chicken, Asian sauce (ketchup, mayo, hot sauce, light soy sauce, minced garlic, honey and a bit of sesame oil) and pickled onions. The combo of the heavenly soft and succulent bao and crispy Korean fried chicken with the sauce and pickled veggies is just surreal.

    Whenever I make bao, I use banana leaves from the trees I grow in the backyard to line my bamboo steamer and the subtle flavor just makes it so much better!!!
  • In Hawai’i we have a thiccc version of this called Manapua, it essentially looks like the steamed buns from Spirited Away, but instead of bean paste it’s stuffed with Char Siu pork🤤

    "Just like they told you at prom, 'Leave enough spice for Jesus'" sold me enough I wish I could like this video twice lolol
  • I can't thank ya enough, mate. Been using the dough recipe, step by step, and following along with the pleating, for all the steamed buns I've made. Mostly been doing sweet/dessert types: apple cinnamon, lemon, blackberry, and chocolate. Finally tried my hand af savory, made pizza ones. Family and coworkers have absolutely loved them. Thank you for the awesome and very descriptive video.
