About Steamed creamy yolk bun

Steamed Creamy Yolk Buns are a delightful treat originating from Chinese cuisine, often enjoyed as part of dim sum. These soft, pillowy buns are crafted from wheat flour dough and filled with a rich, velvety custard made from egg yolks, milk, sugar, and butter, giving them their signature creamy texture and indulgent flavor. While they are prized for their comforting sweetness and smooth, satisfying filling, they are a calorie-dense option due to their sugar and fat content. The buns offer modest protein from the egg yolks and milk, but are low in fiber and high in refined carbohydrates. Steamed preparation avoids added oils, making them lighter than fried alternatives. These buns are best appreciated as an occasional treat or dessert, pairing decadence with a cultural experience that highlights the craftsmanship of Asian culinary traditions.
