THE BIG STEAMED BUNS from Spirited Away | Feast of Fiction

[@Sgt_Viper000]

I love that, in the English dub, the little girl in Spirited Away has the same VA as Lilo from Lilo and Stitch.

[@AquamarineDust]

The older girl who gives Chihiro the bun shares the same VA as Meg from Hercules

[@Linktoutetetsu]

Sorry for nitpicking, it's one of my favorite dessert/meal as a kid, so I want people to know what it's supposed to be like : Uniform small bubbles and a smooth surface outside is desired for this kind of steamed buns, think cakes as opposed to bread. In order to achieve that, you need to re-knead the dough after the first rise to squeeze out large air bubbles as much as possible. (I like to use a rolling pin for this). After steaming, turn off the heat, but leave the lid on for a few minutes to avoid shrinkage. Also, the dough looks too wet, so the buns look kind of collapsed. You need firmer dough to get the dome shape.

[@matildebruneel7867]

Yeah, I'm so confused, the dough in the video doesn't look right at all

[@D3sdinova]

Or just buy them at the grocery store, or a indonesian restaurant. Theyre amazing with shoarma, but good luck finding a israeli/indonesian fusion restaurant.

[@haruru8618]

I noticed this too

[@mentaritravel1004]

ya I agree, they don't look good at all, its flat and had way too much air bubbles. Bun looks easy to make but even using the wrong type of flour and ingredients, and we're not talking about the cooking process yet, can lead to a catastrophe like this. Thanks for sharing your tips!

Honestly you can use a pot on a stove for everything. For the steamer you just also need something with holes on the bottom like a strainer or something

[@marlenedietrich2468]

@RobOfAllTrades you can get pots with a small metal holed "plate" the goes underneath the lid for steaming things

FutureBerea Alumn yeah i have no clue where to get that steamer. I just have liddle veggie Steamer that sits in the pot

[@philosophersink7072]

Any steamer works, guys :p

[@ILOVEDEC12]

Uses an instant pot, a steamer, a stand mixer, and a food processor to make a simple recipe? 😂 I don’t own any of those things... 😂

[@seedmix754]

@@ILOVEDEC12 im sure there can be substitutes for this. Stand mixer? Use hands.. its more fun. Steamer? You can make one with a pot of boiling water and a metal drain bowl thing. Food processer? A blender should work just fine but if you dont have one, mash the beans and mix until that consistency

[@MEKCreations]

@@ameliagrein5070 That'll work too, just set something on top to hold the steam in.

[@emalinu]

everyone thinks this had an savoury meat filling and im sitting here thinking it was filled with chocolate

[@peyton7290]

Lmao every non Asian person thinks that red bean paste inside of buns are chocolate for some reason! (I'm Asian, for context.) Like those buns in Doraemon? Everyone thought the inside was filled with chocolate.

[@kenzasa2101]

@@peyton7290 Oh , how does it taste btw compared to chocolate ?

[@emalinu]

@@peyton7290 its probably because ive never heard of red bean paste, i know about red beans (rarely eat them) but never thought about red bean pasta

[@kerokero9458]

@@emalinu I eat red beans all the time but I had never heard of red bean paste until now, I also was curious about the recipe and decided to try it out for myself

[@peyton7290]

@@kenzasa2101 it's just sweet. The red beans aren't there all for flavor, it's mostly just to make a sweet paste out of something most people have at home or can buy for pretty cheap while chocolate is.... Chocolate lmao

[@Animangagirl27]

Quick warning for any Latinx peeps or anyone who's just used to eating refried red beans: This is a totally different taste that's going to kinda mess you up since you're used to eating a more savory version of red beans. The texture is similar but the sweetness is going to put you on your head and make you question everything. Happened the first few times I had mochi but you can get kind of used to it. Its surreal.

[@sholmes4593]

As a Mexican person... I have never in my life eat red beans in any way. I actually don't know where to buy red beans here, I think is a very expensive ingredient. I will just fill mine with Nutella.

[@sierratorres4695]

Sherry Holmes yeah refried beans are usually pinto beans... I don’t think I’ve ever ate anything other than pinto and black beans for any Mexican dish that included beans.

[@dulcebautista1437]

As a mexican raised in LA.. I LOVE anything red bean! Red bean jellies, red bean buns, red bean pancakes (dorayaki), oh so good!!

[@jacksparrowismydaddy]

basically the beans you are looking for are red Azuki beans. there are also white azuki beans too. so have fun people.

[@wweandy123]

This! At first I was totally thrown off but after trying different foods that have sweet red beans I love the flavor now. Even my mom who is savory bean lover, enjoys deserts with sweet red bean as well.

[@CrackaDon]

Ah yes, a gracious amount of sugar, let me grab my "Gracious amount" measuring cup, right next to my "Smidgeon" measuring spoon
