Steamed buns with sesame seeds

Overview

There are about 300 grams of sesame filling left from making glutinous rice balls during the Lantern Festival. I happened to have no breakfast these days. I used sesame filling to make the buns. With a little thought, the ordinary buns instantly turned into beautiful ones. The rich aroma of sesame seeds, coupled with the golden pumpkin puree, are naturally nutritious and delicious.
