Steps:
- Heat oil in pan, sauté onion for 1 to 2 minutes. Add in char siu, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, sesame oil and red food color, if using. Stir fry for 1-2 minutes and add salt to taste.
- Mix corn starch and water together, add to the filling. Simmer on low heat until the sauce is thickened.
- Remove the filling from pan. Let cool.
- Divide the filling into 16 portions. Set aside.
- Sift the flour, wheat starch and powdered sugar. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the middle of the flour mixture and add the yeast, lukewarm water and vinegar or lemon juice, if using. Gently dissolve the yeast with the water. Slowly bring together the flour mixture and add in the vegetable oil.
- Knead with hands for 15 minutes or until a soft dough is formed. It should be smooth and shiny on the surface.
- Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let rise for 60 - 90 minutes or until it expands in size.
- Dissolve the baking powder with the cold water, sprinkle over the dough and knead until well combined. For fluffier buns, rest the dough for 10 minutes after baking powder is added.
- Cut and divide the dough to 16 equal portions.
- Using a rolling pin, roll and flatten each dough ball to a 3" circle. Place a portion of the filling in the middle.
- Wrap and fold the dough up.
- Pinch and twist to enclose the opening. Make sure the char siu bao is sealed tight at the top. Place it on a 2" x 3" piece of parchment paper. Repeat the same until you make 16 buns.
- Arrange the buns on a steamer, leave about 1" gap in between buns. Spray water mist over buns, and steam in a preheated steamer on high heat for 10 minutes. (You may add 1 teaspoon of Chinese white vinegar to make the char siu bao white.)
- Remove buns from the steamer, serve warm.

Steps:
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment (you can also just use a regular mixing bowl and knead by hand), dissolve the yeast in the warm water. Sift together the flour and cornstarch, and add it to the yeast mixture along with the sugar and oil. Turn on the mixer to the lowest setting and let it go until a smooth dough ball is formed. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 2 hours. (I haven't forgotten about the baking powder. You'll add that later!)
- While the dough is resting, make the meat filling. Heat the oil in a wok over medium high heat. Add the onion and stir-fry for a minute. Turn heat down to medium-low, and add the sugar, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and dark soy. Stir and cook until the mixture starts to bubble up. Add the chicken stock and flour, cooking for a couple minutes until thickened. Remove from the heat and stir in the roast pork. Set aside to cool. If you make the filling ahead of time, cover and refrigerate to prevent it from drying out.
- After your dough has rested for 2 hours, add the baking powder to the dough and turn the mixer on to the lowest setting. At this point, if the dough looks dry or you're having trouble incorporating the baking powder, add 1-2 teaspoons water. Gently knead the dough until it becomes smooth again. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for another 15 minutes. In the meantime, get a large piece of parchment paper and cut it into ten 4x4 inch squares. Prepare your steamer by bringing the water to a boil.
- Now we are ready to assemble the buns: roll the dough into a long tube and divide it into 10 equal pieces. Press each piece of dough into a disc about 4 1/2 inches in diameter (it should be thicker in the center and thinner around the edges). Add some filling and pleat the buns until they're closed on top.
- Place each bun on a parchment paper square, and steam. I steamed the buns in two separate batches using a bamboo steamer (be sure the boiling water does not touch the buns during steaming process). Once the water boils, place the buns in the steamer and steam each batch for 12 minutes over high heat.

Steps:
- Dissolve 1/4 cup sugar in 1 3/4 cups warm water, and then add the yeast. Let stand for 10 minutes, or until mixture is frothy. Sift the flour and baking powder into a large bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons shortening and the yeast mixture; mix well.
- Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, and cover it with a sheet of cling wrap. Let the dough rise in a warm place for about 2 hours, or until it has tripled in bulk.
- Cut the pork into 2 inch thick strips. Use fork to prick it all over. Marinate for 5 hours in a mixture made with 1 1/2 tablespoons light soy sauce, 1 1/2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, and 1 teaspoon sweet soy sauce. Grill the pork until cooked and charred. Cut roasted port into 1/2 inch cubes.
- Combine 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce, oyster sauce, and 1 cup water in a saucepan. Bring to the boil. Mix cornstarch with 2 1/2 tablespoons water; add to the saucepan, and stir until thickened. Mix in 2 tablespoons lard or shortening, sesame oil, and white pepper. Cool, and mix in the roasted pork.
- Remove the dough from the bowl, and knead it on a lightly floured surface until it is smooth and elastic. Roll the dough into a long roll, and divide it into 24 pieces. Flatten each piece with the palm of the hand to form a thin circle. The center of the circle should be thicker than the edge. Place one portion of the pork filling in the center of each dough circle. Wrap the dough to enclose the filling. Pinch edges to form the bun. Let the buns stand for 10 minutes.
- Steam buns for 12 minutes. Serve.

CHA SIU BAO (SWEET BARBECUE PORK BUNS)
Cha siu bao are a traditional Chinese dish and one of my fiancee's favorites - she introduced me to them. Bao is the Chinese word for bun; cha siu describes the filling. I had several recipes, none of which turned out perfectly; this is a composite of 2 recipes, and I think I've got it. These are somewhat time-consuming to make, but are well worth it on special occasions. Prep time includes time for the bao to rise.

Steps:
- You can use my recipe for char siu (#34265) or make it with a mix- both powdered and liquid mixes are available at Asian food stores.
- I like the Noh brand, personally.
- Chop the char siu and mushrooms finely.
- Combine the water and cornstarch and stir into the char siu and mushrooms.
- Add salt, soy sauce, sesame oil, hoisin sauce, and sugar, and add enough food coloring to color the mixture a bright red.
- Heat the oil and lightly cook the garlic, then add the rest of the filling mixture and cook until thick.
- To make the bao dough, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the water and let stand for 5 minutes.
- Combine water with salt, milk and oil; stir in flour.
- Knead 5-10 minutes or until dough is smooth.
- Divide dough into 8 even balls.
- Press a cavity into each ball, and spread the ball into a 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick cup.
- Fill the cup with 1/8 of the filling mixture, and press the edges closed to seal the bao.
- Cut waxed paper in 4-5 inch squares and place each bao on a piece of paper, sealed side down.
- Place bao in a steamer basket, cover, and let rise for 1 1/2 hours or until doubled in size.
- Bring the water under the steamer to a boil and steam bao for 10 minutes.
CHAR SIU BAO (PORK BUNS)
I adapted the char siu recipe from my friend Mitch's late Great Uncle Kennie's recipe. Making these dim sum buns does take a bit of time, especially if you make the meat yourself, but the results are wonderful! If you have an Asian deli that sells char siu (Chinese BBQ pork), that will save you time. Times assume meat is pre-bought or made ahead of time. Thanks to Pneuma for putting this recipe in her best of 2008 cookbook!

Steps:
- To make meat:.
- Combine marinade. Marinate pork at least 3 hours, or overnight.
- Cooking methods:.
- a) place meat on a roasting pan with a rack -- with the pan below filled with water and roast at 350 F until done (turn over half way through) OR.
- b) cook in a crock pot with 3 cups of water for 1 hour on high and then 7 hours on low or until it flakes apart (this is the method I have used) OR.
- c) you could try grilling or broiling the meat, but it might lack some of the moisture that the other two methods will give you.
- To make filling:.
- Sauté ginger in hot peanut oil, stirring constantly, for about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and mix with hoisin, chili paste, green onions and meat. Let cool.
- To make dough:.
- Mix yeast, sugar and warm water; let proof (sit and rise) for about 10 minutes.
- Place flours and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, if available. (This can also be done by hand).
- Add yeast mixture. Knead until homogeneous and dough forms a ball.
- Let rise in a cool place to minimize air bubbles, about 15 minutes.
- Portion dough into 16 balls, flatten them, and place a small amount of filling into the center of each.
- Pinch back to close and form a ball shape.
- Place balls on lightly oiled piece of parchment or waxed paper (oiled plastic wrap would probably work too). Let proof 15 minutes, or until double in size.
- Place in a covered steamer, and cook for 8-10 minutes.
- Eat now or cool completely and freeze in ziplock bags (to reheat: steam 10 minutes).
- Enjoy the fruits of your labor!

- Begin by prepping the dough. Dissolve the yeast in warm water in a large mixing bowl. If you are using an electric mixer, use the bowl for the mixer. Then sift together the flour and cornstarch before adding it to the yeast mixture. Add in the sugar and oil as well.
- While the dough is resting, let’s get started on the filling. Chop the onions finely and dice the Chinese roast pork. If you decided to make your own roast pork, let it cool completely before dicing.
- When 2 hours have passed, your dough should have risen quite a bit. Add in the 2 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and mix it in using the low setting of your mixer or by hand. If the dough looks dry or the baking powder isn’t incorporating well, add 1 to 2 teaspoons of water. Knead until the dough becomes smooth again. Then cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for another 15 minutes.
- When the water is boiling, carefully open up the steamer and place the buns in. Make sure the buns are about 1 to 2 inches apart and the boiling water does not touch them. You may have to steam in 2 batches depending on how large your steamer is.
