Steamed Buns
Season 2016
Episode 12
Steamed buns: cloud pockets of steamy goodness, just waiting to be filled with tender meats, pickled vegetables, fresh herbs, and ooey-gooey sauces. When Nick Gavin set out to make ChefSteps’s version of this Chinese classic, he started with Momofuku’s famous recipe and streamlined it for home cooks, winding up with this simple, well-tested path to perfect little Chinese-style taco shells.
