How to Make Nikuman (Chinese Steamed Pork Bun Recipe) | Cooking with Dog

[@malinaxochitl]

Hello Nikuman fans! Last night I made these and gyoza (almost same filling on both) and they were amazing. I'm in Mexico and my Mexican friends tried the Japanese food for the first time...they liked it so much next week we are going to a really nice Japanese restaurant to try different foods! Thank you to cooking with dog for the great recipes! Arigato! Gracias! :)

[@neofils]

The only problem is that both gyoza and nikuman are in fact Chinese

[@cookingwithdog]

Chef recommends using Anko (sweet bean paste) as a sweet filling :) Hot melting chocolate will leak out of the steamed buns if there are any gaps.

[@canteloupe5997]

I like how they say 'good luck in the kitchen' its like they know we will burn it

[@anitamihholap5926]

Not sure you can burn something in a steamer.

[@swedishfish5622]

Anita Mihholap oh rlly? Then i aint gotta worry

[@apatheticAnxiety]

You can if all the water evaporates and you continue heating an empty pot. My dad is very skilled at this when making boiled water...

[@cookingwithdog]

Chef recommends freezing the nikuman after they are fully cooked :)

[@Octjoy]

I watched this video many years ago when I wanted to make buns, I was not convinced that’s the best one at that time. Then I continued to look and search for the perfect recipe. Until I failed many times following other recipes I realised the best one is the one I saw at the first. It gives the right amount of ingredients and clear instructions.

[@ayyysaki603]

So many people have dogs in there home and they are always in the kitchen when your cooking, its not like shes cooking for a restraunt or anything so i don't see a problem with her having a dog with her. She is just showing us how to make this and is probably gonna enjoy it with the dog afterwards. It's not disgusting or unhygienic in my opinion especially when the dogs not even moving. Thats a well trained dog .

[@criscarvalhoss1]

I could spend all my days watching your videos!

[@Geekella]

I made this last night. It turned out very well and it tastes delicious! thanks, Cooking with Dog :D

[@cookingwithdog]

You're welcome. ;) Glad to hear you enjoyed the nikuman!

[@Fluttershy0037]

How long did it take you to make them?

[@Kt-cn2rq]

+Meulin Leijon im making them now but may take 1hr if place isnt too warm specially in winter

I've had Pork Buns before that I warmed up in the microwave and they were good!!

[@yellerart]

Hey Chef! I wanted to thank you for making videos, I've been following your channel since I was in high school (I'm 27 now!) and thanks to you I've learnt a lot about cooking. My older sister's favourite was Nikuman, she really loved it and whenever she'd visit she'd ask me to make them for her. I lost her to covid a year ago and I wish I could make it for her one more time. I hope her and Francis are having a good time in heaven! Sending you my love and appreciation! Thank you!

[@cookingwithdog]

Beef and chicken are also used for nikuman. Other popular fillings are sweet bean paste, curry and pizza toppings :)

[@yeetmymeat1120]

Rip Francis 😢 I hope your eating the most delicious of foods in doggie heaven

[@ahkidamoonlight140]

**『ミスメイ』* * he died?

**『ミスメイ』* * WAIT WHAT HES DEAD

[@moseslim4983]

Plot twist he is just a mecha dog

[@kayoungthompson6893]

​@@ahkidamoonlight140yes he passed away. I think he was 12-13 yrs old

[@kayoungthompson6893]

​@@neonpiss836yup. He lived to the ripe old age of 12 or sum where around that age

[@cornflkeboy1]

This lady is clearly an expert chef, I would LOVE to taste these dishes!

[@bigdaveoncampus]

I find this very handy being a university student, I can make a load up on the weekend, then I have barely any cooking to do during the week! Thanks for the recipe!

[@martinsmotic5059]

I admire the Japanese so much for their perfectionism

[@MaxichaChan]

"and chop them into fine pieces." lol. Why do I love the way whoever narrates these videos says "fine pieces"?! Anyone else particularly love this accent?

[@advi10]

Watching how this lady cooks is a delight for the eye. I don't know how to cook yet, but I hope someday I learn to do it to the japanese style, so meticulous in the excecution of each step of the preparation. Ver como cocina la señora es un deleite visual. No sé cocinar pero ojalá algun día aprenda a hacerlo al estilo japones, tan cuidadoso en cada paso de la preparación. I love this channel! Amo este canal! :)

[@PartOfTheGame]

After watching these videos for about an hour, I looked at my potato chips and got disgusted that I was eating them previously.

[@Truecrimeresearcher224]

Try watching this after going grocery shopping it's the same feeling

Yes! You can also use beef for nikuman :)

[@novad511]

I finally gave this a try. It was wonderful, and my guests really enjoyed it! I'll post a photo on the facebook page.

[@devonweekes5888]

I like Francis. He's like the star of the show.

she has skill, and she is so adorable i love it #obsessed

I'm a french fan of asian food and i wanted to say how great is your job with these videos congratulations ! Bravo from France !

I'm so amazed when Chef work the dough around the meat.

First time visitor. Makes me want to start a cooking channel. Or, maybe just an eating channel! Nice

[@TheMiig1513]

Eating channels (livestream tho) are very popular in South Korea, so you could definitely do that!

[@TMIDiva]

LOVE these recipes! I've made 2 of your dishes so far and the instructions are great. I love how you show the best way to chop a spring onion.... this way is the most efficient and uniformal in size.

[@1lapmagic]

I have wanted to try these for twenty years, and now I can just make them myself...Thanks, Francis! The chef is so unbelievably quick and deft in her movements.

[@Dementhegor]

She does everything so gracefully, it's amazing.

[@LucidlyAwkward]

I should not be watching these videos on an empty stomach

[@flafelqueen]

:(

[@noelic6744]

Watching this right after breakfast. Can't say it helps any better with a full stomach.

[@EscargoTouChaud]

I was eating a sandwich while watching, and had difficulties appreciating it :(

[@smutz131]

I should not be watching this three days into an eight day fast.

[@pokefanover900000000]

That skill though........ I wish I could cook like this!

[@srlkngl]

WoW!!! its seems a lot of work for 8 servings but golly what a work of art!!

[@CowNamedMuffin]

I've made homemade nikuman. It took me half a day to prep and cook, but it was so worth it in the end. Instead of using wax paper I used lettuce leaves and they were fun to eat with the buns

[@cindys1859]

I like the idea that you put the dough in the styrofoam with warm water. This is brilliant! I love to make steam buns, but hate to wait for the rise Love your recipes! Thanks!

[@Tonith]

The way she effortlessly makes those pleats makes me think she has done this before. ;) I love it! I'm going to try this! These are my daughter's favorite!

[@albertqhumperdinck]

The music is really well suited in this one, especially at 5:00 when chef starts folding the pleats in the top of the bun. I'm about to make these, wish me luck!

[@NaruzaMotomo]

love their videos 😋 But my fav part is when he says "into fine pieces"

[@ethandagamer255]

So sorry to hear about Francis.

[@LadyOcon]

The dought never went smooth sadly, and the tecnic of pleads and twist is reaaaly haaaard xD!!! need more practice... althout the dought really compicated my cooking, the taste was AMAAAZING!!! the meat seemd to not be fully cooked even if I let them 20 min just to make sure it cooked... but still the taste WOOOW!! I figure out I can fill them with anithing, as long it can be shaped and cooked. THANK YOU!!!

[@CaliforniaCarpenter7]

ASEOH Mine didn't either. The amount of liquid just wasn't right, I just kept adding luke warm water until the dough got to the consistency shown in the video.

[@Meska971]

it's been 14 years... 14 years... I'm here, following this YT page, since, at least, 13 years and 11 months... I remember.... I was a yong cook... The love of my life turned crazy and dumped me (2 things not connected) ... I was depressed... And the warm and passion of/on this YT channel just saved me. Now... I have 2 kids... And i teach them how to cook ; and sometimes, I come back here, before "lessons", as like as i'll come to my grant-mother to get advises... Thank you for all... Grand-Ma'

[@Shadowfright_]

I could watch her chop anything for hours and listen to Francis for hours! They are just addictive!

[@siberiaXiceXsavoir]

Me: Ok, I swear this is the last one.......OOOO WHAT'S THAT IT LOOKS SO GOOD **clicks**

[@OtakuMadnesspwns]

These look so yummy! I will definitely try these sometime, although I will probably end up doing a fish-tofu combination instead of pork because I can't eat the stuff. Looks delicious otherwise, though.:)

[@chikinluvver4123]

Times like these make me question my Kosher diet....

[@Purplepie404]

Lol

[@gunfuego]

why not substitute chicken for he pork I'm sure if you used dark meat it would be similar and still taste good....

[@chikinluvver4123]

+gunfuego I can't eat shrimp eitheeerrr thoooo 😣

[@gunfuego]

well you could omit the shrimp, My local buffet has these but they don't use shrimp, cabbage, or onion. it's made of pork. If you use everything and substitute chicken instead of pork, and chicken broth instead of shrimp juices I'm sure it would turn out good :) or you can make the American version using biscuit dough and diced chicken breast ;)

[@chikinluvver4123]

+gunfuego Very true, I'll try that 😄

[@starcubby]

i'd love to try this out! but my fear is that it may not be cooked all the way through.

[@CaliforniaCarpenter7]

So, no disrespect, but I just tried making this recipe. 150mL of liquid is not nearly enough for 250 grams of flour. It took me ~265mL to get the dough to the consistency that yours was. Probably just a typo. Love the videos nonetheless.

[@superposico]

I have the same prob. I used all-purpose flour and everything. I used a Japanese measure cup. The only thing though I used cane sugar. Hope it was typo.

[@simplequestions95]

I made this recipe and the directions are very good. The final product is amazingly delicious. Thank you very much Chef!

[@Pixiecard]

I was looking everywhere for this dish and with the help of your video I made them myself for the first time. It really took me forever, but just because I had to run back and forth between the place where I was cooking and my laptop where I was watching your video. I'm not a great cook but they turned out fantastic. I even managed to get the folding right after a little practice. Thank you so so much for the recipe and the funny and easy to follow way you presented it! Much love from Germany.

[@AMermaidsTail]

much better than the cooking shows they have on food network! The cutest cooking show ever!!!!!

[@JJackman93]

just made this with peas instead of cabbage cause i didn't have any and some coriander in the mix, tasted lovely, thanks cooking with dog!

[@madeleinejayne2838]

i made theses with gluten free flour so my dough didnt rise much and the bread part was kind of dense but the flavors were awesome. everyone who tried them was like " the filling is really good..." Great recipe, thanks cheff!

[@datnguyenthe8300]

When Chef does it, it looks so beautiful and perfect. I made Nikuman today and OMG the folding/wrapping was so demanding! I barely wrapped it inside. Mine has countless flaws whereas hers have none :'( I'm totally worshipping her :D

This is the second time I made this and the result was amazing.The filling was very well seasoned and has a subtle smell of spices in it.One note for anyone who's gonna attempt this is that don't need the dough too much or else you will end up with a chewy and a tad hard buns

[@cookingwithdog]

You can use regular vegetable oil instead of sesame oil :)

I just made this today and I have to say, it was delicious. Even the dough was great. I will be re-making this recipe from now on. The only thing I substituted was the dried shrimp. I used frozen shrimp instead but followed the directions. Thank you for the video and recipe.

[@AMermaidsTail]

I made these and they were absolutely ,hands down, the best thing I have ever made! I made them without the shiitake broth, oyster sauce, and the shrimp because I don't care for shrimp, oysters, and mushroom broth. I think they taste just as good because I substituted the broth with vegetable stock and it worked out fine (my sisters were particularly great full, were not big seafood eaters)! I was able to find all the ingredients at my local Caputo's.I defiantly recommend freezing before a party
