Manma’s thoughts:

1. Water can be replaced with milk. The amount of white sugar in this recipe is not too much. The steamed buns don't taste very sweet. If you like sweets, you can add a little more sugar.

2. Let the steamed buns cool slightly. The taste is best when it is warm. You can eat more than you can eat at one time. Keep it sealed and frozen, and just take it out and reheat it when you want to eat it.

3. Regarding the fermentation time, the reference time for fermentation at room temperature is 40-60 minutes, the specific time and temperature, and the type of yeast powder Depending on other factors, whether the final fermentation is in place still depends on the state of the dough.
