Five ways to cook steam buns (bao) without a steamerMalaysian steamed buns or (Malaysians know as “pau”) are a delicious staple at every dinner across Asia and the world. It’s easy to see why: the soft airy texture, elasticity and freshness make them not only irresistible but also suited to an endless range of cooking applications! Pau are one of the many Chinese culinary influences that were brought to Malaysia by Chinese immigrants whose contributions later formed the basis of the “Nyonya” cooking style. Whether eaten either as a snack or an accompaniment to the main meal, our frozen pau is also available filled with mouthwatering savoury and sweet fillings such as pandan coconut, curry or black sesame. Pau is traditionally cooked using a bamboo steamer, and it’s this technique that diffuses moisture into the bun to give it that much loved puffy texture. At the same time, any excess moisture buildup is absorbed into the bamboo weaving. This avoids moisture droplets from building up and soaking through the bun. If you are away from home or in other parts of the world, sometimes a bamboo steamer might not be on hand but don’t worry, there are some inventive alternative methods you can use to cook steamed buns without a steamer! All of these cooking methods can be done successfully with our frozen bao, without the need for defrosting.
