Popular as street food and an everyday family dish in China, steamed bao buns (Baozi, 包子) is one of the foods I really enjoy cooking.

They are not difficult to make but it can be very tricky to get them right, especially when it comes to making a nice wrapper which rises properly, has a smooth look and a soft, fluffy texture.

Working one at a time, flatten the edges of a bun and make a divot in the center.

Pull the edges of the dough around the filling and seal the bun.
