@@trevortroopa968 dawg I just wanna make dumplings
I thought that I had blanked a few minutes of my life, so I am glad that I was not the only one who missed the filling 😅
Yeah! The filling part used to be there!
@@trevortroopa968 it's too late, I'm already triple vaxxed. Wait until you hear about all of the other shit I do that I don't wait around to hear your opinion on.
I think that "Strictly Dumplings" is light years ahead of the Travel Channel and Food Networks current offerings. The content of critiques, demonstrations and virtual tours are top quality. I have thoroughly enjoyed every one of their videos. Big things are ahead for "Strictly Dumplings"!
Thanks for the kind words :-)
And in a year look at how this channel has progressed it really is incredible
He needs his own show on Discovery or Travel!
Tl;dr: hes just really enthusiastic and happy about his video!
@@strictlydumpling you really can cook mike,thumbs up.
10-15 min for Yeast Activation, about 1.5 hours for dough to rise, let dumplings sit for 20-30 min before steaming, steam for 20 min, and let dumplings sit for 5 min after steaming (do not remove steamer lid). It will take you about 3 hours in total to make
thank you that helps
Jh
The best things in life take time
you can trim the cooking time if you cook the filling a bit beforehand, while the dough is rising
Tq, I'll try.
He makes the folding look so easy😭😭 mine look like they've been stepped on or something
Just do it fast like you know what you're doing and they come out really good lol just made some tonight for the first time. They came out amazing!!
My dick fell off
Cooper Twyman then you didn’t do it fast enough
Same lol, turning while folding is what I'm confused on.
Must knead about10 minutes
I feel like this guy could sell me anything
Nicole Though yeah he's a semi pro human trafficker
Saul Garcia I hope that was a joke.
Dokkan Dude Ofc it wasn't.
This dude is like a funny talkative uncle to me.... 💦
Definitely. Im about to order a dumpling steamer.
I like that you used a large rolling pin.. And showed us a couple times with a step by step on how to close the bun. Thanks Mike..
I'm a couple years late to the party, but my sister and I are about to make these tomorrow before she leaves for college. I seriously love your enthusiasm for food and your desire to share your culture with others. My husband and I have been downright obsessed with food like this as of late, and it is so neat to watch a recipe video like this that feels so down-to-earth and legit. Thanks so much for all you do!
3:57 video skips over the whole pork filling section?? :(
I made jiaozi/dumplings with this recipe! I mixed flour and water. No yeast. Kneaded the dough, made the circles, put the stuffing inside, sealed them and steamed it. Tasted great!
THANK YOU SO MUUUUCHH
Ah, I am always shaky about using yeast. Nice to know it can work well without.
@@sigurdtheblue it's just not as fluffy as the dough doesn't rise. And you need more of it too
Those aren't baozi, then. They are long bao, and if soup-jelly is added, they are xiang long bao, also called soup dumplings. Technically, all baozi are dumplings, but not all dumplings are baozi. 😁
He never said that it was baozi he said jiaozi
Did anyone see the short film before the incredibles where the little dumpling dude gets eaten?
Thats why im here! :)
Bao is the name
Yes
Yup
Yes lmao
I love how in depth you go with the folding! I am about to make this for dinner tonight! thank you kind sir
This is maybe the most helpful guide to folding bao buns I've ever seen! Appreciate the different camera angles!
I died when the sign fell and you reacted super quick. xD
Jackie Chan always had great reflexes
May the 4th was with him. :D
PhuCatGeek a little too quick 🤔
PhuCatGeek maybe he IS related to Jackie Chan after all.
You can tell he had to put it back on several times haha! You can see in the past frames the tape start to slide only to be back in place by the jump cut haha!
I was actually thinking yesterday about why you have never made a video on how to make a dumpling. Thanks for showing us. I know it's gonna take some time for prep but it's gonna be worth the wait.
Chris M how were they xp
s y n c h r o n i c i t y
It's not a dumplings it's a pork bun, huge difference in wrap vs bun
I tried making this with my daughter and now whenever we crave good chinese bun we make this. Thank you so much for an easy, delicious recipe!
I almost put 4 cups of water in my meat mix because of the description!!! but don’t worry I double checked and saw the tiny dot in front of the 4! So glad I double checked because this recipe is soooo delicious!!
If Mike had a cooking show... I would watch
Thank you for taking time on the fold. Other people are just like "Yeah just fold it!" Like what? Thank you again. They look delicious!!!
Thanks :-)
Wow, Thank you so much for showing us over and over how to twist the buns. So educational thorough and value your patience. 🌷🧡
the whitest guy you know just made these and i am patiently waiting for them to steam in my new bamboo steamer! Thanks for the tutorial! I was looking for more from you but could only find this...
He has a playlist Called “Simple recipes - mostly Chinese”. It has every cooking video he made
I don't get why you had to specify "whitest guy", is this the famous "white guilt" that I heard americans are indoctrinated into believing?
@@TheFilipFonky Seriously waiting for YT to feature a laugh button.
Superstar Banana Mix lol he said it because this is a Chinese recipe and he is White which means not Chinese, so he’s basically saying the guy in the video made it easy enough for someone of a different culture to make and enjoy... idk why whenever someone mentions a race it has to be a problem
@Ego Amatium so if someone disagrees with you they are triggered? I imagine you have a buzzword for every situation so you can avoid having to use your head
A man who never eats a pork bun is never a whole man.
I was hoping to see this...wasn't disappointed. :)
Yeah, me too :D
Why don’t you have a Pork Bun in Yo hand!?
:O I could really use a pork bun !
I doubt seeing an American cowboy eating a dumpling
I love how not only do you take us to the places to eat the food you love but you show us how to make them. Thanks Mike definitely going to make these.
I followed your recipe and they were amazing!!! I did use all purpose flour from a western market and they were kind of yellow but still good! I became addicted to these when a friend of mine, originally from China, would make these and she was such a sweet heart because she would always make about 2 dozen for me to take home. Sometimes they had pork filling but she also did vegetarian and bean fillings. I love your video because it teaches you from start to finish. I still need to practice pinching so mine were not as pretty but still tasted awesome! Thank you.
I have tried several of your recipes, they all turn out delicious! These pork buns were so good. Love your step by step instructions. You make it so easy!
I love to make challenging recipes if only to prove to myself That I can. I've made Chinese dumplings, tamales, baklava, etc. etc. I'm so looking forward to trying some of your recipes. I love adventurous eating so your videos are wonderful!
Pamela Phillips Hey is this my friend that shared her home made crust recipe with me??
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He’s coming soon.* Don’t take that 💉‼️‼️
"And nobody likes saggy buns!" 😝😂
Nayanika Barman It's funny 'cause it's true.
Nayanika Barman I like it. I am Chinese and I like Chinese food.I love Chinese buns yummy
Nayanika Barman Not saggy ones
LMAO
Nayanika Barman lol
This is the only bun recipe I use now. They are fluffy and AMAZING. Thank you!
I've done your recipes like the braised pork and it turned out soo good I make it every so often and my family loves it. BBQ pork buns are my favs.
For me the KING of all dumplings : Char Siu Bao simply irresistible.
Just made these yesterday and my husband (and I) loves them!!! He even ate half of mine when I wasn't looking 😄 So delicious these are going to have to be a household common! 😍
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He’s coming soon.* Do not take that 💉
Thank you for showing how simple and easy it is to make this!👍🏽👏🏽
I’ve used this recipe twice, both times Amazing. Thanks!
You're honestly such a great teacher ! I love the different angles
When you go to a restaurant and order a pork bun that turns out dry and it gets juicier.... through your tears
When you go to a restaurant and order a pork bun and it turns out to be shumai, or some "asian fusion" hamburger (both have happened to me).
Katie M nooooooo!!!
asd asd yu
Come to China I will treat you to some of my grandma's juicy buns
asd asd i will just eat it instead of crying
Thank you so much for this recipe. I have been buying these for years, I love them. I will do this and may be make different fillings for sure!
I made these for my in-laws last night and just used the second half of the dough and filling tonight. Unbelievably good with a 75/25 ground pork! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for this video! I made some! Bought the fancy flour and everything! They are great! Going to invest in a bamboo steamer!! They were lots of fun to make!
The video skips how to make the filling and how to roll out the wrappers.. you talk about proofing the dough then there's like a glitchy cut, and you're talking about folding the filled wrappers.
you do such a good job explaining how to make the folds in the pork bun and leave the little opening that literally I got it the very first time you showed us how to do it. You're extremely good at teaching and I love all your videos
Thanks for the close-ups and details on the folding/pelting the baozi.
This is the most underrated cooking show
Super excited! Just ordered my bamboo steamer and cannot wait to make these for my boyfriend. He love love loves these and is going to be so shocked when I make them for him! Great video! Thank you!!!
I have been craving these for MONTHS and thought they were so hard to make. I am very grateful for your vids!!!
Please keep making other recipes. I LOVE watching you eat at buffets,I have never seen anyone eat as much as you do. (Good Thing) Thanks so much!!!
This is SO GOOD! I made the dumplings at home and I must say, they are super delicious, moist and you can’t stop eating them! Thanks for sharing your recipe with us!
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He’s coming soon.* Do not take that 💉
Magnifico, una increible receta y todo muy bien explicado. Felicidades.
I just wanted to say, the way you describe the instructions is AMAZING!!!!!! It's super easy to follow and I thing you could do more "how to cook" videos. Love your videos!
My next-door Chines neighbors were experts at cooking pork buns with sweet rice. I was 5 or 6 remember and I remember how much I enjoyed this truly wonderful food.
I got.... flour, and I got.... pork. Ok then, time to find an asian store.
*_UH_* Trip to the grocery store
First Las t j in TV no 4 by
you can use 1/3 cup lemon juice, and 2/3 cups water instead then, tho it isn't as used as rice wine itself can be made and be non alcoholic
LMAO
For anyone who does drink alcohol but can't get Chinese rice wine, you can use dry sherry or vodka.
Thank you. Your instructions and close camera view are impeccable. Love your reflexes with that sign. Do you have or will there be an additional video for soup dumplings using this base?
I made these today, and they totally rocked! I definitely want to try them again with vegetables or other fillings. The pork was really great.
I've been making my baozi so wrong all these years... no wonder they kept deflating! Now I follow your recipe and they are so fluffy!!!! 感谢你.
I love how detailed your demonstration was. Just perfection! My kids will surely love this!
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He’s coming soon.* Do not take that 💉
that was a wonderfully clear video. great instructions and tips.
I know this is a bit of an older video of yours, but it is so full of awesome! I mainly watch your travel videos and never realized how great of a cook you were! I've only seen you eating, not cooking! So glad to be a subscriber, Mike! :) Keep doing what you do!
I love them. My Chinese friend used to cook this for me almost every week :)
He is cute! Good job! Buns look Delicious.💗
Love this! I like the recipe format because you don't make these so often, keep it up man, it's really entertaining and useful!
Excellent baozi tutorial. Thanks for showing us the technique, very well done Mike!
A timeless classic, now within my power to make. Wow 😃
Tried these they were absolutely perfect so soft and melt in your mouth 😫😫🥰💓
I’ve made these several times now. I made them for my daughter who is home from college for two weeks on the first night she was home. She has again requested them less than a week later. They are wonderful! I did change one thing. I use 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame oil instead of two of regular. Just our preference. I’ve made them with both kinds of flour. I do prefer the dumpling flour just because it looks prettier. Thank you for posting this! It’s our family’s new favorite meal!
You make it look so easy. Thirty years ago, I was introduced to these by a co-worker. I could never find them made since then. Thank God for You Tube. Not only do I get the recipe, but a lesson in how to do it. Thank you for posting this video.
Bro, I'm a gamer, and been playing a game called "Sleeping Dogs", and have since been addicted to Char Siu Bao. I usually buy mine ready-made at my local grocery store at the Kroger, and now I would like to take a leap of faith (and trial and error) and learn how to make my own Char Siu Bao. Keep it up!
I just made these, and they were amazing! Thank you for the recipe and the instructions!
where are the reciepe
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He’s coming soon.* Do not take that 💉
Love DUMPLINGS 🥟 so delicious
Best video showing how to close the buns 👌👍 Thanks a bunch!
This recipe worked for me. I used all purpose sifted flour and put in sauerkraut though. It was great. I don't have a bamboo steamer. I used an oven steam bath instead and covered the pan with a tent aluminum foil with the dumplings on a wire rack over the water.
Thank you for this! Ive been addicted to eating Asian cuisine for a year now and I'm continuing this 2019 and I have never made Baozi!
I'm gonna make this for christmas
I have looked for a good steam bun video for a long time and this is a great video. Love the details on how to assemble the bun. Thank you.
I just wanted to learn how to fold the buns but the rest of the recipe is so great, and you're so passionate about it, I gotta do this all some day. Great video!
Made these for Thanksgiving and they were AMAZING! Thanks Mikey
Just made this last night for dinner. It was my first time making baos and it turned out perfectly. Thank you for the techniques and advice. I love your channel btw.
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He’s coming soon.* Don’t take that 💉‼️‼️
I made this and it was delicious! My family loved dipping it in a little hoisen sauce . Please share more recipes!
Just found your channel because of your colab with uncle roger, and I love it. Thanks for sharing your passion of the dumpling with us.
Years later and I'm still looking up this video for a reminder on the recipe. Last time I made these I had them nearly picture perfect. You need to do more of these cooking videos, Mike! This is one of my favorite dishes. Also, whatever happened to your gang that you used to film with? It was like two other guys and a girl. That's when I first started watching. Today is a Baozi Friday! Cheers!
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He’s coming soon.* Do not take that 💉
Thank you so much! My first dumplings turned out delicious! There's definitely room to improve on my folding skills, but I have enough lockdown time to practice :)
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He’s coming soon.* Do not take that 💉
This video is perfect! You went so detailed in the folding description, but I didn't feel like it was too much.
I had never made dumplings before. Followed the recipe exactly. They turned out great. Beautiful and delicious. Thanks, Strictly Dumpling!
Sometimes when my parents leave the house, I lay down in the garden and pretend I'm a carrot.
Advait Panicker me too
me three
Advait Panicker 😂
Advait Panicker Yes.
Advait Panicker did we ask
hi Micky, thanks for sharing the recipe, definley will try them , there look amazingly Good. God bless, bye. 🍴
Athea Nicholls hey I've seen you on art and bris channel!
Made these yesterday they were so good, whole family liked them as well.
Best folding technique description I have seen so far
Every time I watch your vids, it always makes me so hungry. yummy :-)
Hey Mike, I would just like to say this channel is AMAZING!!! I know I'm a kid but I love all ur food videos and I always want to eat them! (Esipecially the ramen u had in Osaka Japan!!!
Master Yang I watched that video more than 5 times 😂😂😂
Myle SAME!!!!!!!!!
LOL I thought I was the only one that rewatched his videos way too many times
The ichiran place? I watched that five times too. i was salivating the whole time, living vicariously through Mike because I know I will never visit Japan.
I just had my first steam bun last week!! OMG fluffy pillows of porky goodness!!!
I'm going to give this recipe a try. Thanks for showing us a few times more, how to fold the dough.
I used this filling in some wanton wrapers - oh, so good!
Theresa Rice really, awesome idea
the most beautiful buns I've ever seen :'''''>
I love your detailed techniques and passion.👍
Damn I love watching you eat! I'm making these today - I bought a bamboo steamer like six months ago, and today is the day I'm going to christen it! I've wanted one of these steamers for about 40 years, I have no idea what took me so long...
im so happy you left the sign falling in the video😂😂
I must say, this video introduced me to that amazing dipping sauce I'd have never thought of it by myself. Thank you Mike for giving me pure perfection! Sour, salty, aromatic.. everything you'd like from a dipping sauce. And it goes with every filling you choose. Pure goodness.
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He’s coming soon.* Do not take that 💉
I love all your videos!! I just adore you ❤️ keep up the great work love
Is it me or did we just skip over how to make the filling I seen him make the dough and then it skipped a whole part on how to make the filling you just see him put the filling in the dough omg.
That little timer animation sounds _exactly_ like my alarm clock. Hearing it made me really anxious😂
This looks so good 😍 definitely going to make! Thank you
These were so good! Thank you for your work!
First thing I thought was: OMG he's so adorable
