When it comes to buns, it can be said that everyone knows it. But do you know why buns are called buns? You can certainly answer: because so, scientific truth.
In fact, there is a small allusion here, people are more inclined to say that the bun was invented by Zhuge Liang in a battle, thinking that the soldiers ate steamed buns (no filling) without nutrition, so they mixed beef and pork together, chopped into meat paste as a filling, and steamed into the noodles, for the soldiers to eat, and later people called this "steamed bun" the food filled with meat filling as "bun".
After thousands of years of evolution, the current buns, types, appearance and fillings are very rich, colorful and diverse. Regardless of large buns, small buns, meat buns, vegetarian buns, thin skin, thick skin, as long as it is delicious, as long as the customer is satisfied, it is a good bun, as the saying goes: don't take the bean bun improper dry food, haha.
Today I will share with you a thin leather bun method, the ingredients and methods are relatively simple, eat nutritious and healthy, then the heart is not as good as action, like it together to try it, let us gallop, share the world's best food.

First prepare a and a basin, pour 300 grams of flour, add an appropriate amount of warm water, preferably not more than 40 degrees, add water while stirring non-stop, until stirred into dough, knead by hand into a smooth dough with moderate softness and hardness, cover with a lid, and relax for 15 minutes.
Below, let's prepare the filling
1 handful of dried vermicelli, soaked in warm water to make a soft reserve, you can also use sweet potato noodles, the taste is good. Wash a small handful of leeks, chop them and put them in a basin. Scoop out the softened vermicelli, drain the water, chop it with a knife and put it together with the leeks.
Take another small basin, beat in 3 stupid eggs and stir well with chopsticks to set aside. Add a little cooking oil to the pot, after the oil is hot, pour in the egg mixture, crush the eggs and let it cool.
Put the main ingredients together and the eggs, leeks and vermicelli in a basin.
Once the ingredients are ready, we start to mix the bun filling
Drizzle a little sesame oil on the leeks, this step is to lock in the moisture inside the leeks and prevent water from coming out when making buns.
Add thirteen spices, chicken powder, soy sauce, oyster sauce to an appropriate amount, stir well with chopsticks and dissolve all the spices.
After 15 minutes, remove the loose dough, knead into long strips and cut into equally sized dough seeds.
Use your hands to flatten the dough one by one, roll out into a round dough, try to roll out the dough as round as possible, so that the bun will look better, because the bun with high value is more sought-after.
After rolling out all, add 3 grams of salt to the filling, mix well again, salt is best to wait until the time to make the bun, if the salt is put too early, the filling is easy to get out of the water.
After mixing the filling well, hold the dough skin with your left hand, put in the filling, then hold the filling with the thumb of your left hand, and use the thumb and index finger of your right hand to knead the bun skin forward.
While pinching, I circled it to make a bun shape, and then wrapped the rest of the dough in this way.
Boil water in the steamer in advance, after the water boils, put on the grate, brush with a layer of vegetable oil, you can also put on the steamer cloth, so as to avoid the bun sticking to the pan.
Then put the buns in the pot one by one, leave a little gap in the middle, cover the pot, turn on the high heat and steam for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, take out the steamed vegetarian buns and put them on the plate, and the steaming buns can be served one by one with a thin skin and large filling.
