How to Make Anman Steamed Buns With Azuki Sweet Red Bean Paste
- **Prepare the Azuki Bean Paste (Instructions not included here, as this is a modified version of a separate recipe. Please refer to the original source for detailed azuki paste instructions).**
- In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add the sugar, salt, and milk to the yeast mixture. Stir until combined.
- Gradually add the flour, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
- Roll each piece into a smooth ball.
- Place about 2 tablespoons of azuki bean paste in the center of each dough ball.
- Bring the edges of the dough together to enclose the filling, pinching to seal tightly.
- Shape each bun into a slightly flattened round.
- Line a steamer basket with parchment paper.
- Place the buns in the steamer basket, leaving some space between each bun.
- Steam over medium-high heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the buns are cooked through and fluffy.
- Remove from the steamer and let cool slightly before serving.
