I absolutely adore its fluffy, cotton-like texture and creamy, fragrant taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you ever considered making them at home? You should definitely give it a try! My tried and tested recipe will walk you through the process with many tips and tricks to help you succeed. Here is the summary of three simple steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol style=\"background-color:#ecf4f2\" class=\"wp-block-list has-background\">\n<li>Follow a simple four-ingredient formula to prepare a rich, smooth filling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use the &ldquo;yeast + baking powder&rdquo; method to make a single-proof dough.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assemble the buns then steam for 8 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>&#127775; <strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Don&rsquo;t forget to check out my post on <a href=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/top-dim-sum-recipes\/\">Top 15 Most-Loved Dim Sum Recipes<\/a> which features many other classic dishes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ingredients-for-the-filling\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#4d8682\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Ingredients for the filling<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is said that every dim sum restaurant has its own recipe for the filling of custard buns. The ingredients required can be quite different. I&rsquo;ve done extensive research and kitchen experiments to figure out the recipe I feel most happy to share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, I&rsquo;ve settled for a four-ingredient formula. It&rsquo;s simple, easy to make and tastes absolutely delicious. I particularly love the semi runny texture which takes the filling to the next level (It&rsquo;s much softer than the custard filling used in <a href=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/snow-skin-mooncake\/\">Snow Skin Mooncakes<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mashed-yolks-with-sugar-butter-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"mashed yolks, sugar, butter and milk powder in a bowl\" class=\"wp-image-17075\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For making about 8 buns, you&rsquo;ll need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>3 yolks of hard-boiled eggs, or cooked salted duck egg yolks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>50g unsalted butter, softened<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>30g full-fat milk powder<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>30g sugar, or 40g if using salted egg yolks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Try salted egg yolk<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Both regular egg yolks and salted duck egg yolks (&#21688;&#34507;&#40644;) work for this recipe. But if available, I highly recommend you try the latter. The combination of saltiness and sweetness is a real winner with <a href=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/cantonese-mooncake\/\">Lotus Paste and Salted Yolk Mooncake<\/a> being a classic example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Substitute for milk powder<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I usually use full-fat milk powder for this recipe. However, you may replace it with custard powder (Ji Shi Fen, &#21513;&#22763;&#31881;) if it&rsquo;s more accessible. In this case, make sure you use traditional style custard powder which contains egg and milk. The more popular type, such as Bird&rsquo;s custard powder, isn&rsquo;t a great choice as it&rsquo;s made of cornstarch and flavouring, etc. But it would be OK if you&rsquo;d like your buns dairy-free.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"prepare-the-filling\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#4d8682\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Prepare the filling<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/filling-of-custard-buns-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"custard filling in a bowl\" class=\"wp-image-17068\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter which type you use, <strong>the yolks need to be cooked before mixing with other ingredients<\/strong>. While they&rsquo;re still warm, use a spoon to mash them into a fine powdery texture. If you&rsquo;re a perfectionist and would like to avoid any lumps, press the yolks through a fine sieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add softened butter, milk powder and sugar. Take your time to mix everything very well to create a smooth paste. Since none of the ingredients in this filling are raw, I suggest you add the sugar gradually. This way you can taste and adjust to suit your own sweetness preference.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"make-the-dough\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#4d8682\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Make the dough<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The dough for custard buns is Chinese-style leavened dough that creates a soft and fluffy texture after steaming. I&rsquo;ve shared a few different formulas, such as yeast only dough for <a href=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/pan-fried-pork-buns\/\">Sheng Jian Bao<\/a>, yeast plus baking powder version for <a href=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/mantou-steamed-buns\/\">Mantou<\/a>, etc. To imitate the restaurant version, I think the formula I&rsquo;ve used for <a href=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/char-siu-bao\/\">Char Siu Bao<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/red-bean-buns\/\">Red Bean Buns<\/a> works the best for today&rsquo;s recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make 8 buns, you&rsquo;ll need the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>175g low-gluten flour, or all-purpose flour<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tsp instant dry yeast<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tsp baking powder<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tbsp sugar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tbsp neutral cooking oil<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>90g lukewarm water, adjust if necessary<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flour choices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since steamed custard buns are a sweet treat, <strong>the best choice would be low-gluten flour<\/strong> which creates a soft, cotton-like texture, <strong>such as cake flour or special bao\/bun flour<\/strong>. Buns made with bao\/bun flour also look much whiter, just like what you&rsquo;d get in a dim sum restaurant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, <strong>please feel free to use all-purpose flour if low-gluten flour is difficult to source<\/strong>. In this case, slightly increase the water volume (e.g. from 90g to 95g) as flour with higher gluten content has a higher water absorption capacity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1378\" height=\"924\" src=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/dough.jpg\" alt=\"A piece of dough\" class=\"wp-image-12827\" srcset=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/dough.jpg 1378w, https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/dough-400x268.jpg 400w, https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/dough-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/dough-1024x687.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/dough-768x515.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1378px) 100vw, 1378px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If making the dough manually, mix and combine all the ingredients into a rough-looking dough.

Put a spoonful of the filling in the middle of a wrapper and seal it into a ball. No fancy pleating is required as the sealed part is facing down while steaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow the simple four-corner method shown in the image above (also in the video) or any other way you feel comfortable with. No matter which technique you use, <strong>it&rsquo;s crucial that each bun is completely sealed<\/strong>. Otherwise, the filling will leak out when softened during steaming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"rest-and-steam\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#4d8682\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Rest and Steam<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With the sealed part facing downwards, place all the buns into a steamer basket. To prevent sticking, I used cupcake paper moulds which are the perfect size for these buns. Alternatively, line the basket with parchment paper or brush a thin layer of oil if using a metal\/plastic steamer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/uncooked-buns-in-steamer-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"uncooked buns in a steamer\" class=\"wp-image-17071\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Leave the buns to <strong>rest in a warm place to proof for about 30 minutes<\/strong>. During this process, they&rsquo;ll grow a little bigger (but won&rsquo;t double) and become plumper (the surface of the wrappers looks tighter and smoother).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let&rsquo;s cook! Bring water to a full boil in a wok\/pot. Then place in the steamer basket. Cover with a lid. <strong>Leave to steam over medium-high heat for 8 minutes<\/strong>.

There are two ways to cook raw salted duck egg yolks:&nbsp;<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Option 1: Cook them in the shell in boiling water for 8 minutes. Peel off the shell and the egg whites.<\/li>\n<li>Option 2: Crack the eggs and rinse off the egg whites. Steam the yolks for 8 minutes or bake them in a preheated oven at 190&deg;C \/ 375&deg;F for 8 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<span style=\"display: block;\">2. You may replace milk powder with the traditional style custard powder which contains egg and milk. Bird&rsquo;s custard powder (a popular brand) is not an ideal substitute as it&rsquo;s made of cornstarch and flavourings. But it would be OK if you&rsquo;d like your buns dairy-free.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\">3. To imitate the restaurant style custard buns, it&rsquo;s best to use low gluten flour, such as special bao flour (available in Chinese stores) or cake flour which has 7-8g protein per 100g flour. If unavailable, you may use all-purpose flour which has 10-11g protein per 100g flour.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\">4. Instant dry yeast can be mixed directly with flour. If using active dry yeast which has larger granules, dissolve it in water first then mix with other ingredients.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\">5. The flour-water ratio may vary slightly depending on the type and brand of your flour. Please feel free to adjust. The dough should be soft but not sticky.<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"cwp-food-privatenotes\">\n\t\t<div class=\"wprm-private-notes-wrapper\"><h3 class=\"wprm-recipe-header wprm-recipe-private-notes-header wprm-block-text-bold wprm-align-left wprm-header-decoration-none\" style=\"\">Your Recipe Notes<\/h3><div class=\"wprm-internal-container wprm-internal-container-private-notes\" style=\"padding: 0px;border-radius: 0px;\"><div class=\"wprm-private-notes-container wprm-block-text-normal\" data-recipe=\"17079\"><div class=\"wprm-private-notes-placeholder\"><a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">&#9997;&#65039; Write here<\/a><\/div><div class=\"wprm-private-notes-user\"><\/div><textarea class=\"wprm-private-notes-input\" aria-label=\"Your own private notes about this recipe\"><\/textarea><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"cwp-food-nutrition\">\n\t\t<div id=\"recipe-17079-nutrition\" class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-shortcode-container\"><h3 class=\"wprm-recipe-header wprm-recipe-nutrition-header wprm-block-text-none wprm-align-left wprm-header-decoration-none\" style=\"\">Nutrition<\/h3><div class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-container wprm-nutrition-label-container-simple wprm-block-text-normal\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-container wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-container-serving_size\"><span class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-label  wprm-block-text-normal\" style=\"color: var(--wp--preset--color--foreground)\">Serving: <\/span><span class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-value\" style=\"color: #333333\">1<\/span><span class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-unit\" style=\"color: #333333\">bun<\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: var(--wp--preset--color--foreground)\"> | <\/span><span class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-container wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-container-calories\"><span class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-label  wprm-block-text-normal\" style=\"color: var(--wp--preset--color--foreground)\">Calories: <\/span><span class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-value\" style=\"color: #333333\">199<\/span><span class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-unit\" style=\"color: #333333\">kcal<\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Nutrition information is automatically calculated, so should only be used as an approximation.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-call-to-action wprm-call-to-action-simple\" style=\"color: var(--wp--preset--color--background);background-color: var(--wp--preset--color--tertiary);margin: 0px;padding-top: 24px;padding-bottom: 24px;\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-icon wprm-call-to-action-icon\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 58 55\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n<path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M28.6585 6.63738e-06C29.42 -0.00194974 30.1166 0.428717 30.4551 1.11083L38.2458 16.8082L55.6197 19.3416C56.3719 19.4513 56.997 19.978 57.2326 20.7008C57.4682 21.4236 57.2736 22.2175 56.7304 22.7494L44.0942 35.1247L47.0955 52.3206C47.227 53.0736 46.9177 53.8356 46.2987 54.2841C45.6797 54.7325 44.8592 54.7889 44.1847 54.4294L28.6638 46.1568L13.1462 54.4293C12.4713 54.7891 11.6503 54.7325 11.0312 54.2834C10.412 53.8343 10.1033 53.0714 10.2357 52.3182L13.2589 35.1247L0.601897 22.7506C0.0578633 22.2188 -0.137261 21.4243 0.098489 20.7009C0.334239 19.9775 0.960023 19.4506 1.71298 19.3414L19.1818 16.8083L26.8677 1.12004C27.2027 0.436202 27.897 0.00196286 28.6585 6.63738e-06Z\" fill=\"white\"><\/path>\n<\/svg>\n<\/span> <span class=\"wprm-call-to-action-text-container\"><span class=\"wprm-call-to-action-header\" style=\"color: var(--wp--preset--color--background);\">Like this? <a href=\"#comment\">Rate and comment<\/a> below!<\/span><span class=\"wprm-call-to-action-text\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A popular dim sum, steamed custard buns are loved for their fluffy texture and rich flavour.
