Steaming the buns takes about 20 minutes.

The time required to steam buns generally depends on the size of the buns and the cooking utensils. If you use an induction cooker to steam, it will take about 10 minutes for smaller buns and 15 to 20 minutes for larger buns. If you use a steamer to steam, smaller buns can be steamed for 15 minutes, while larger buns usually need to be steamed for 20 minutes.

The wrapped buns should be covered and left to rise for 20-30 minutes, because part of the air in the dough is released when rolling out, and continuing to rise can make the buns rise more evenly and plumply.

The degree of awakening is based on the swelling of the buns. Steaming meat-filled steamed buns usually takes a little longer than ordinary steamed buns, about 20 minutes.

One more thing to note is that after steaming, do not rush to open the lid. Stay on the stove with the heat off for 5 minutes and then remove the lid from the heat for three minutes.

Tips for steaming buns:

1. When we steam buns, we must put cold water in the pot, so that the water will gradually heat up and there will be a second awakening. During the process, the buns not only rise well, but are also softer after steaming.

2. When steaming steamed buns, they must be steamed over high heat. Do not use medium or small heat after getting out of breath, otherwise the steamed buns will not be very fluffy.

3. Master the steaming time of the steamed buns. If the time is short, the steamed buns will not be cooked enough. If the steaming time is too long, the bun skin will collapse. Therefore, be sure to compare the size of the buns and the time of the vegetarian filling and meat filling. Steam.

4. After steaming the steamed buns, turn off the heat and simmer for 5 minutes to prevent the buns from expanding with heat and shrinking with cold, causing the buns to collapse and shrink.
