Homemade Bai Ji Mo
Overview
Baiji steamed buns. I have eaten them several times when I went to Xi'an. They were stuffed with braised pork and they were very delicious. After I came back, there were several shops selling roujiamo. A small bun with a bit of braised pork would cost more than 10 yuan. I thought I might as well make it myself. The most important thing about Roujiamo is the steamed bun. The delicious steamed bun is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Even if it is empty, it is very delicious. Once the steamed bun is cooked, everything will be delicious. The one I made is not authentic, but the taste is still very good.
