About Custard steam bun

Custard Steam Bun, also known as "Liu Sha Bao" in Chinese cuisine, is a soft, pillowy bun filled with a rich, creamy custard often made from milk, sugar, egg yolks, and butter. Originating from Cantonese dim sum culture, these buns are steamed to perfection, offering a smooth texture and a delightfully molten center with a balance of sweetness and savory notes. While they are a delicious treat, Custard Steam Buns are high in refined carbohydrates and sugars, which contribute to their caloric content. They also contain fats from the custard filling, including saturated fats, depending on the preparation. On the positive side, the buns are generally free of preservatives and artificial ingredients when made traditionally. Though indulgent, they are best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
