• 1 tsp neutral oil (vegetable, canola, etc.)
• 1/2 tsp baking powder (added after the first rise)
• For the fillings you can get creative there is not a lot you can do wrong with Baozi you can even stuff it with cream cheese and sugar to make it a desert.
• What I do is typicall some blend of finely chopped veggies and meat in a marinade over night. You can use this as inspiration as this is what I normally use.
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Shaoxing wine
