Myriad Foods Taro Buns

Myriad Foods Taro Buns are pillowy steamed bao wrapped around a smooth, lavender-hued taro filling. The paste is gently sweet and nutty, with the soft, faintly floral character that makes taro a beloved dessert root across Cantonese and Vietnamese kitchens. Each bun has a tender, snow-white skin that yields to a velvety center.

Steam these buns straight from frozen for the best texture. Place them on parchment in a steamer over boiling water for about ten to twelve minutes until soft and springy, or microwave a damp-wrapped bun for a minute. Enjoy them warm with jasmine tea, alongside a dim sum spread, or as a sweet finish after a savory meal.

This package holds 7 oz with 4 individual buns, a good size for a small household or a tea-time snack. Keep them frozen until you are ready to cook, and steam directly without thawing. Inside is a leavened wheat bun encasing sweetened taro paste, making them a vegetarian-friendly treat.
