When making radish stuffed buns, how do you make radish more delicious? Here's a tip to share with you to make your bun filling more juicy and flavorful.

As the weather gradually cools, especially in the early morning, it is biting cold, and the slightest mistake may lead to a cold. Therefore, it is important to take precautions to keep warm before going out, especially to protect your abdomen and feet from the cold. At the same time, choose to eat some warm foods, such as steamed buns, soy milk, etc., which can not only warm up the body but also provide energy for the new day. I usually steam some buns in advance on weekends and store them in the fridge so that they can be enjoyed on busy mornings with a simple heat up, which is convenient and nutritious, even if it's cold outside.

The arrival of autumn brings with it an abundance of vegetable options, among which large radish is an excellent choice for bun fillings due to its delicious taste and plenty of moisture. However, to make a delicious bun filling, the way the radish is handled is crucial. Since the radish itself has a special smell, if it is used directly to mix the filling, it may affect the taste of the bun.

So, how do you properly handle radishes to make delicious radish minced buns? Here's how to make the filling so juicy and sweet that you can't help but eat three or four at a time. Let's learn the specific steps of making radish stuffed buns now.

Let the fried shredded radish cool and mix it into the meat filling, add the chopped green onion and mix well in the same direction, so that the radish and pork filling are ready and can be put in the refrigerator. (Other ingredients such as fungus, vermicelli, etc. can also be added to the filling according to your preference)

11. When the dough has risen to twice the size, take it out, sprinkle some dry flour, knead well, divide it into small agents, roll out the skin, wrap it into a bun, and put it in the steaming grid.

12. Pour warm water into the steamer, put it in the steaming grid, and cover the pot for secondary fermentation; After the volume of the buns increases slightly, turn on the fire and steam them to steam.
