Myriad Foods Wheat Steamed Buns

Myriad Foods Wheat Steamed Buns are plain mantou made with wheat flour, giving them a warm, nutty character and a faint natural sweetness. The crumb is soft and springy with a pleasant chew, and the surface is smooth and pale gold. Unfilled and gently sweetened, they are the comforting bread of northern-style Chinese tables.

Steam these buns from frozen for about ten minutes until soft, fluffy, and warmed through, or microwave one under a damp towel for a minute. Split and pan-fry them for crisp edges, tuck in braised pork belly for a homemade gua bao, or serve them plain to mop up the sauce from red-braised dishes and saucy stir-fries.

This bag contains 14 oz of buns, a versatile staple to keep in the freezer for quick meals. Steam straight from frozen with no thawing needed. The buns are made from wheat flour with a touch of sugar and no filling, making them a vegetarian-friendly base for sweet or savory pairings.
