How to make BAO from the Pixar movie Bao -- Chinese steamed bun recipe

[@jakegagnon1861]

I’m 17 and I just made this for my mom on Mother’s Day, there was a lot of extra filling so I sauté’d the leftover in a pan and made it with rice, she was incredibly happy and loved it, thx so much

Yes, I do remember Elmyra and in fact I’ve always wondered why that “cute aggression” happens. Every time I pet my cat I clench my teeth because I can’t handle how cute she is!!!

[@graypaint]

🐈👋....😬

[@hiro1001]

One of the theories I heard (from a PsyShow Psych video) is that cute aggression is a way for your brain to try to calm yourself down. Basically when you find something so cute you can't stand it, your brain goes "Okay buddy you need to chill out by... wanting to squeeze it." Basically just a weird quirk in our brains that was probably a lot more useful when we were hunter/gatherers, but in modern times kinda makes us go "WTH is wrong with me!"

Ahh, I grew up eating siopao. only found out recently its just a filipino take on chinese bao (cha siu bao). they look identical except siopao is a bit bigger and breadier and the filling is probably 98% meat... with the occasional egg lol. besides bakeries you can buy them at literal gas stations and mini marts. p.s. where i live now the term for that cute squeezing feeling is "magodai"

There's really no difference. It's just called a different name there. Within the country of origin you can find several variations. Even the bigger size, being mostly meat and having egg in it also exist there. I've actually seen some versions the size of a standard steamer.

[@LinguisticFanatic]

I love what I saw as a play on words for that short. 包子 (baozi) or shortened "bao" is obviously the name of the food in the short. However, I just sat there thinking "Her 包 (bao) is her little 宝宝 (baobao)" with "baobao" being "baby". Then when it turned out to be her son it just made the whole thing so much sweeter. Also, I love making bao at home. However I make taco baos which is not traditional at all. If something can be eaten as a sandwich, with a tortilla, or paired with a dinner roll I'll try to stuff it in the bao and see how it goes.

[@susanscovill6817]

I love these. Excellent lesson once again Emmy! The Bao I usually make is a little different. I steam the Bao bun then add meats that were cooked separately. Lessons from School of Wok. Both are supper tasty and now I have learned how to ‘pleat’ my Bao. Cheers

Why 50 50 cooked and raw pork in the stuffing?

Also I think I may do a couple different flavors like a Taco Bao, cheeseburger Bao, Ramen & beef Bao.... UPDATE: I make these frequently, I have done a breakfast one, a few different southwestern inspired.. They are a favorite here. I suggest going for the name brand Grands over store brand, the taste and texture is Far superior, but both are delicious. I bake mine only because I have no way to steam them now, but my husband Loves taking these to work the next day, and 1 tube of biscuits is Not enough for 2 people, I suggest a tube per adult person because they are that good. The best part is you can stuff it with ANYTHING, Just be careful with the liquid content, I have had bao butts bust and spill juices 🙄. It did happen less with the name brand biscuits, but the more liquid created during cooking the higher likelihood of them having a blow out, also try to leave the bottom a bit thicker, I think out the edges kinda like hand tossing pizza then put my filling in the middle then close it.

[@likeasunburn]

what's the reason for cooking only half of the pork? just curious.

[@joyjoyoo]

likeasunburn I don't get that either

[@vincent.nguyen66]

If you were to cook all of it raw a lot of the juices/fat oils would fill the middle of the bun and make the bottoms pretty goopy or just super mushy and all the filling could fall out. It’s not a sure thing since it just kind of depends on the fat content of the pork you bought. But anyways.. When you cook just a portion of it and mix it into the raw- during the cooking process the cooked pork takes on the moisture from the juices of the raw :)

I just made these following your video! My dough was too sticky and I accidentally put too much yeast in so they came out blobby and they got pretty big. Still cooked nicely and were delicious though! I have about a cup of extra filling, what would you suggest using that for? I was thinking about sauteeing it with some eggs, maybe put it in an omelette

You sounded like one of the munchkins from Oz! Lol. Why do they cook only half the pork? Is it a texture thing? Thankyou for this. I remember the vid you did with the ones filled with bean paste-which I really want to try. I love beans-legumes. Thats a big part of meatless protein.😍🍚I'll love them and hug them and hold them forever! I adore your infectious enthusiasm Emmy. Lovely!😎

[@jessicabieber1000]

Laura Metheny might be half cooked to ensure full cooking. If it was all raw, I would be worried the whole thing wouldn't cook fully

[@prettybyaccident]

I also wondered that. If it’s to ensure full doneness why not just cook all the pork?

[@BriiCosgallaMakeup]

Victoria Hauck because that'll make the filling hard and not juicy.

[@kellyforlife09]

I was thinking if you cook half, you can drain half the grease. So when the bao is cooked it will only have enough juiciness to not be really soaked/fall apart. Not sure though!

[@NotAyyOhFee]

KrisCricket yes! That is exactly why. Less grease, different texture.

I made this yesterday for my sister’s birthday and it tastes really good! Thanks for sharing the recipe and making this video!

[@marissahoover406]

Oh my God, she’s so weird in the best way. I died when she talked to the bao.

[@TheBlackHijabi91]

I absolutely love your videos!!!! Can I ask you a question? I don’t eat pork but I’d love to make these, what kind of meat can we substitute for the pork? Can we make these vegetarian with mushrooms maybe or with ground chicken?

So THAT's what a shaved Tribble looks like... :P

The look of these reminds me of cheeseburger pods that I had gotten to try at Disneys animal kingdom this Saturday...they were so cool! The inside tasted exactly like a double cheeseburger from McDonald's! It was so strange, also there was curry pods as well but i didn't try those. I definitely recommend tryin/recreating the cheeseburger pods tho! :)

[@pamelalepper2368]

How did I not find you sooner? Just watched your Bao Taste Testing...was hoping you had a recipe to make it too....can't wait to try!!
