Siopao

In this tutorial I am showing you how to make a basic siopao dough and a quick and easy filling. In my succeeding videos, I hope to share with you other versions of siopao with different filling recipes.
The siopao dough is very basic. Do not add egg or butter or any ingredient that would potentially discolor the dough.
The process for making the siopao dough is slighlty different from the regular bread dough. Pleating the dough needs experience. Be patient if you can't get it right the first few times. You also need to remember to mix only enough dough that you can fit in your steamer at one time. Timing is crucial in making the siopao. Please watch the video in full to avoid disappointment when making your own siopao. A little patience and a lot of practice will be a lot of help. But no matter how the siopao will look, they will all taste delicious! Good luck!

Chef's Notes:
1. Always remember to put a cloth before putting the lid on the steamer so the steam will not fall into the siopao and cause the tops to discolor.
2. Do not allow the dough to over ferment. Your siopao will have a wrinkled look when cooked.
3. Chill the filling before using so it will be easier for you to fill the dough.

I made it to NYC, established friendship with a Miss Cebu who hails from a family of academics. We were puzzled by the Tagalog nurses' disparaging talk calling us "inday". We conducted ourselves with unshakeable self confidence and stayed aloof. Less than stable people are tempted to shake you off your perch to rattle your confidence. I look up to you as my baking mentor so does plenty of viewers.

Hindi ko alam na ang siopao flour is combination of cake flour and all-purpose flour lang pala, thank you Chef Rose for the tip. I will try your recipe, it looks good and yummy❤

I gave it a try and surprisingly my family is loving it. Even my daughther’s american-friends are asking her to bring some siopao to school. Thanks Chef Rose for sharing your recipe. It saves me a lot of time too whenever my kids are asking for snacks or even dinner, I’ll just grab some siopao from the freezer and steam them.

Explaining things like covering the dough to not form a skin, di dahil kasi ginagawa lng talaga nang karamihan kundi alam niya talaga kung bakit ginagawa. Legit professional.

I like the mixture of your dough with cake flour. It is smoother and white👍👍👍

[IcisPowell]

This recipe is it! I already knew what the meat is suppose to taste like and look like. It was the dough that gave me the hardest time. But this cake flour and all purpose flour mix was perfect. Thank you for this!
