Kaifeng Xiaolongbaozi has a long history. It has a unique flavor and is one of Kaifeng's famous foods. Xiaolongbaozi is exquisite in the selection of ingredients and meticulously made. It is made of lean meat from pig hind legs as stuffing, fine powder as skin, and steamed over high heat. Its characteristics are: beautiful appearance, small and exquisite, thin skin and rich fillings, soupy and oily, delicious taste, fragrant and sharp.
Xiaolongbaozi was originally run by Huang Jishan. He draws on the strengths of various companies to make steamed buns that are white in color, soft in texture, and unique in flavor, and are highly praised by diners. Xiaolongbaozi was originally steamed in a large steamer. Later, it was reformed by Master Huang Jishan and became 15 xiaolongbaozi in a drawer. He also made bold innovations in the buns' noodles and fillings. For example, the original dough was made up of one-third of risen dough and two-thirds of dead dough, but later it was changed to only use dead dough, without rising dough, to make the skin thinner without losing the bottom. The craftsmanship of the loose surface is very strict. It has to go through the "three soft and three hard" processes of rubbing, throwing, pulling, tugging, applying water several times, and veneering several times before it can meet the requirements. The stuffing of steamed buns was originally mixed with meat skin jelly, but it was removed after eating too much. The filling is also adjusted with sugar and MSG, and the sweet sauce is removed. Only grated ginger is placed in the filling, without green onions. It takes a lot of effort to beat the stuffing, and the stuffing is beaten until it stretches into long strands. Xiao Long Baozi can be eaten and steamed as you go, and then served on the table; its shape: "Pick up a strand of silk, put down a thin dough, the skin is like the heart of a chrysanthemum, and the filling is like rose petals."
