pork

🥗Healthier: chicken

Chicken is leaner than pork, while turkey is often less expensive.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: bread flour

Whole wheat adds fiber; bread flour can be cheaper and gives a chewier texture.

Add water and vegetable oil to a bowl.

Dissolve approximately 4 grams of yeast in the liquid mixture.

In a larger bowl, combine all-purpose flour and sugar.

Mix the dry ingredients with a spoon until it becomes sticky enough to knead by hand.

Knead the dough for about 5 to 10 minutes until it is smooth and forms a ball.

Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rise at a temperature of about 26-27 degrees Celsius for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Punch down the dough to release gas and reshape it into a smooth ball.

Prepare a wooden surface with a little flour to prevent sticking and roll the dough into a cylinder.

Cut the cylinder into 7 or 8 equal pieces for the buns.

Shape each piece into a smooth ball by rolling it between your palms.

Cut parchment paper into 7 or 8 individual pieces for the buns.

Flatten each ball slightly with a rolling pin and brush one side with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

Place each bun on a piece of parchment paper and let them rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes to 1 hour at the same temperature.

Prepare a steaming setup using a pot of boiling water and a makeshift steamer with holes made in aluminum foil.

Steam the buns for 10 minutes until cooked through.
