I tried your recipe and it really tastes like 551 Horai. I did have difficulty with the dough. It was a little small to cover all the filling entirely. Any tips on how I can make the filling not burst out when I’m folding the pleats? Thanks. Great yummy recipe!

[@Turo_Oikawa]

I made it with my dad a week ago and we used cow meat instead of pork since pork is against my religion but dang it tastes good

Made these today, they turned out lovely! I did a few different fillings (curry, pork, white anko.. Lots of different types) but used your dough for all of them and they turned out really nice. Thanks for the recipe as always :D I love making a big batch and freezing them to resteam later for lunches or snacks! Worth mentioning I liked your pork filling best as well :)

[@22_floW]

What kind of bamboo steamer did you use in this video? There's so many available with different sizes by many different vendors... Maybe it doesn't matter that much?

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

Depends on your budget ❣️

[@22_floW]

​@@kitchenprincessbamboo, are there any good versions for $100 or less? What's the one being used in the video? How much does that one cost?

[@comrademathias1754]

Hi! Unfortunately I don't have access to a bamboo steamer. Do you think they'd come out OK if I put them in an oven with a water container underneath?

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

I don't think so. Try finding any streamer you can find. Thanks for watching.

[@meianoitee01]

I don't have a bamboo steamer, but I have a rice cooker. Do you think it works in the rice cooker on steamer mode?

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

Sorry, but I have no idea about that function. But, why not? Good luck!

[@malcolmframe7183]

Hi can you tell me what is cake flour, in the UK we only have plain or selfraising flour, great video

Looks really good!

[@kamitamimar]

Great video

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

Thanks!

[@rpowling]

So tasty looking! I will make this soon. I have been practicing making chinese baozi, so it is really nice to see the japanese version as well. Your video was very clear and well explained! I do not eat pork, so i use either chicken or turkey. Do you have any suggestions for seasonings for poultry, or would you keep the seasonings the same? Thank you!

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

Hi! I’ll go for miso to be replaced with oyster sauce. Let me know how yours turned out! Thanks for watching ❤️

[@rpowling]

I made these tonight. WOW!!! They are perfect! So different in texture from the baozi. Much softer and more fluffy. And i love the filling! I used chicken and miso. Chinese recipes call for the filling to be mixed A LOT. But i followed your method, and the filling was soft and pleasant texture, with the onions too. Thank you for your super recipe! I will make them again for sure, YUM! Delicious!

[@lootgob188]

just made these - they were fuckin delicious - bun had light, airy, fluffy texture - filling was super juicy and flavorful - i'm going to make another batch to freeze - thank you, princess bamboo - you are my favorite cooking channel for years 💖

[@yasmindiahkirana5139]

So glad i've found your channel. I've made this Nikuman and really2 happy with the result. It's fluffy and so delicious. However, i'm still confused about how to weighing shortening in tblsp as it in solid form. May i know the weight in gram?

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

1 tbs shortening ≒ 10ｇ Keep up the good work!　I want to see the picture of your Nikuman! Thanks for watching!!!

[@yasmindiahkirana5139]

Japanese Everyday Food :Kitchen Princess Bamboo , thank you so much. I've got (13) gr for the shortening using my tablespoon. Ok, must be make it again and i'll send the picture. 😀

[@lavida8543]

Can we vegetable oil instead of lard?

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

It should be fine ！

[@ainakishida8353]

What kind of cake flour and bread flour did you use? (Brand name in Japanese)

[@user-nk1tp4gb8g]

Ok so i wanna make this for my birthday is it ok without the onions also this looks delicious

[@jynkii4u973]

I’m allergic to pork so I’ll try using beef

[@dashinatorx1152]

Hello! Is it possible to use beef for this bun recipe? This looks fantastic and I found this teriyaki beef bun at the Epcot Food and Wine Festival in the stand for Japan and this looks like a great recipe to start off to make a teriyaki beef bun similar to the one in Epcot. It’s that good! ありがとうございます!

[@thanialastar]

Hi! Can I use a rice cooker with the steamer option?

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

I have never use that. But why not?

[@winterowl5789]

I know I can change out the pork for beef or even chicken but could I change out lard for suet.

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

If it is flavorless, you can use instead. Thanks for watching!

[@TheJosie745]

H have you ever heard of shizuo tsuji? My son is reading her book.He absolutely loves it!can’t wait for your next video.Always fun to see what you’ll make 😊

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

Hi, Joann! Yes I have! He is very famous here in Osaka area for establishing the best culinary school in Japan. One of my friend work at the school as pastry teacher(instructor?)/ And I heard that the school opened a restaurant in NY collaborate with a famous chef. How do you like my new video? Stay in touch!

[@pasarasaki9007]

I just don't get what I'm doing wrong: the bun always turns out great, but the filling is undercooked 😢

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

How long did you cook them?

[@Gragasrus]

Hi friend!

[@2fluffybunnies]

is it possible to substitute vegetable oil for lard or shortning? i don't have either of those ingredients.

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

Yes you can!

[@goognamgoognw6637]

wonderful channel and i like your style. Unfortunately i just learned that lectin from starch like flour is unhealthy and causes leaky guts and does not feed your microbiome. So that we should avoid all foods made with flour, cereals and grains (including pasta, bread, pastry, dough, pizza). In fact i wish it was not true. Maybe it's not true and it's caused by pesticide contained in the wheat field so it's important to use only organic / bio flour.

[@sycosimian]

I swear everything you make looks so yummy! As there was no pork in my local shop today I made buns like these but with a super hot curry prawn filling instead (chopped prawn, onion, cabbage ghost pepper, ginger, and curry paste). Also swapped out lard in the dough for sesame oil to give a nutty flavour. This has become my go to kitchen channel when I need new ideas!

[@kitchenprincessbamboo]

Thank you for the compliment! Yours sounds good! Stay tuned!

[@TheJosie745]

Hi!so glad you came out with a new recipe.I am definitely going to give this recipe a try.My husband and I said it looks delicious 😋
