Heating Method - STEAM (Preferred Method)
Step 1
In a steamer pot, bring 2-3 cups
of water to boil.
Step 2
Transfer baos from container to steamer basket. Keep steamer paper under the frozen baos.
Step 3
Place steamer basket onto the steamer pot. Steam baos on low heat for 10 mins. (Insert a chopstick between the lid and pot to create a gap for venting.)
Step 4
Turn off the heat. Let steamed baos sit for 3 mins.
Tips
Keep your baos at their best by allowing proper venting. Leave a gap between the non-bamboo lid and steamer basket to avoid water drips that may affect the texture during thermal changes (soaked baos may contract and harden).
