  1. i think cake flour it’s just for cake.. now i finally found the whiter dough for bao.. thank you cici for always sharing your talents in cooking please dont be tired to translating your recipes in english.. thank you 😊

  2. i have seen many dim sum recipes….and i think on this the best thing i have seen is the way of pinching the bun off, is a really neat way for beginners…the hold and pinch small bits to make a small funnel shape takes some skill, so for beginners this method , is probably alot easier 🙂
