Myriad Foods Cantonese Jumbo Pork & Vegetable Buns

Cantonese Jumbo Pork & Vegetable Buns from Myriad Foods are big, hand-sized steamed bao in the southern Chinese style, each one wrapped in soft white dough around a savory filling of seasoned ground pork and chopped vegetables. The bun bakes up fluffy and slightly springy, with a juicy, gently sweet-savory center typical of Cantonese dai bao.

Steam the frozen bun over boiling water until the dough is puffed and the filling is piping hot, then eat it out of hand as a complete snack or light meal. One jumbo bun fills you like a full plate, the way a Cantonese bakery dai bao does. Serve with chili oil or a little soy and black vinegar on the side.

Choose a single 5 oz bun (RM675) or the 20 oz pack of 4 pieces (RM685) for stocking the freezer. These are the Cantonese-style jumbo bao, larger than the standard pork and vegetable buns, with pork and vegetable inside a thick wheat-flour wrapper. Keep frozen and steam from frozen whenever hunger strikes.
