Exclusive Preserved Mustard Greens and Pork Bun

Deeply savory steamed buns filled with umami-rich preserved mustard greens and ground pork sauteed with soybean paste, yielding a glossy, sweet-salty, wine-dark filling.

    Meigan cai is the little bit left over from the Meicai Kourou made a few days ago (if you are preparing Meigan cai from scratch, that's fine too; just soak it in advance).

    Heat the pan with warm oil, add the scallions and ginger, and stir-fry until fragrant.

    Add the minced meat and stir-fry.

  6. 6

    Stir-fry the minced meat over medium heat until it breaks apart.

    Step image

    Add soybean paste and various soy sauces, paying attention to the amounts.

  8. 8
    Step image

    Add preserved mustard greens. Since preserved mustard greens already contain salt, you should adjust the amount of sauces and soy sauce accordingly to avoid making it too salty.

  9. 9
    Step image

    Stir-fry evenly, turn off the heat and let it cool completely.

    Divide, roll out the dough.

    Step image

    There was some leftover black sesame candy filling at home, so I made sweet buns.

  16. 16
    Step image

    Place the buns into the steamer and steam for two and a half hours.

    Step image

    The sugar buns are also shaped well, and placed in the steamer for the second rise.

  18. 18
    Step image

    After steaming, once the water starts boiling, steam for fifteen minutes, turn off the heat and let it sit for five minutes, then take it out.
