Creating the ball dough

Mix the flour with the sugar, crumble the yeast and put it with the flour, pour the water little by little while mixing with the flour. Knead for about 5 minutes to obtain a smooth and homogeneous ball. Let the dough rest in a large bowl and cover it with a damp cloth. It takes about one hour to hour and a half.

Making dough

When the dough gets higher volume, take it out, degas it and knead again for 1 min.

Divide the dough into 10 equal portions and form a smooth and homogeneous ball. Lower the little ball into a cake; and then with a roll, lower it into a round 4 mm disc.

Resting before cooking

Let the bao rest in the steamer basket for 30 to 45 minutes, pour cold water in a pan that is the same size as your steam basket, ignite the fire when the water starts to boil, turn down the heat a little and cook for 10-15 minutes.

Do not open the lid immediately when cooking is finished, wait 5 minutes.
