Those look tasty. I'm sure Kit won't be able to resist trying it out. One question though- what is mixed flour?

No idea what the proportions are, but probably some version of the dry ingredients used in a recipe like this: http://coconutlime.blogspot.com/2007/01/steamed-pork-buns-char-siu-bao.html

mix of high and low gluten wheat flour i think... but hor but hor! the best bao must use LOW GLUTEN flour and liberal dose of rising agent then will be fluffy ok, ladies!?

And i am stuck in mongolia now. it is sunday. life sucks.

Wah thanks guys!

BQ: would self raising flour work then?
Commiserations all round. You got on your flight to freedom yet?

I think self raising flour you cannot control the amt of raising agent inside so a bit risky!

And I got back at 0600hrs today... and went to work by 0945hrs. seebeh shag.
