Zubereitung von Nikuman Butaman Pork Bun
- **Prepare the Dough:** In a large bowl, combine 250g all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 2 tbsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt. Make a well in the center.
- **Activate the Yeast (if using instant yeast):** Add 1 tsp instant dry yeast to 125ml lukewarm water (105-115°F) and let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- **Combine Wet Ingredients:** If using instant yeast add the yeast mixture to the well, else add 125ml lukewarm water (105-115°F), 2 tbsp milk, 1 tbsp melted butter to the well. Mix thoroughly until a shaggy dough forms.
- **Knead the Dough:** Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add 2 tbsp shortening during kneading. If using a stand mixer, knead with the dough hook for 5 minutes.
- **First Rise:** Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- **Prepare the Filling:** In a bowl, combine 250g ground pork, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 1/4 cup finely chopped cabbage, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp mirin, 1 tbsp sake, 1 tsp grated ginger, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Mix well.
- **Shape the Buns:** Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces and roll each into a smooth ball. Divide the filling into 10 equal portions.
- **Assemble the Buns:** Flatten each dough ball. Place a filling portion in the center, and bring the edges together to enclose the filling, pinching to seal. Twist the top to create a decorative closure.
- **Second Rise:** Arrange the buns on a lightly floured surface or steamer basket lined with parchment paper. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rest for 15 minutes.
- **Steam the Buns:** Fill a steamer with water and add a splash of white vinegar to prevent discoloration. Steam the buns for 15 minutes, or until cooked through. Serve immediately with hot mustard and soy sauce.
