I am a Chinese girl. Nice to meet you!
If you are interested in China, if you want to know more about China, please follow me!
Now I want to introduce you something about Chinese breakfast.
China is an old-line country. Chinese culture is broad and deep. Many things are different in different parts of China.
Chinese people like eating, and Chinese food is delicious!
Today I will show you a kind of breakfast called "baozi" in Chinese. Ok, here we go!
Baozi is made of flour and stuffing,which you can choose whatever you like. Usually it is stuffed with meat, vegetables, eggs, etc.
Shapes are different in different parts of China as well as the tastes. People used to make them by themselves at home, especially when festival is coming, but sometimes we can but them at supermaket or on the roadside. They are cheap, and I'm sure they can supply enough energy for you.
I know Baozi in Tianjing, Shanghai, Hangzhouand Sichuan province is more famous in China. If you have the chance to visit China, do not forget to take some to your family and friends. Share with them!
Welcome Xavia111!
It is really good to hear about your country and about breakfast in your country!
Say hi
Thanks for your attention!
hello Xavia111 you have excellent english skills. welcome to A2K.
Is the flour for Baozi made from wheat or another type of grain?
Do you grow wheat in some parts of China?
What other grains do you grow in china?
Hello xavia111 and welcome to Able2Know!
I live on the West Coast of the United States, and many Chinese people live in my city. I have had similar buns called "ham bao" or "hum bao". They are often stuffed with pork and baked, or sometimes steamed.
In the U.S. at least, baked flour goods are more common than the steamed kind. Some people think the steamed buns are not cooked yet.
I agree, whatever they are called, they are delicious and they make a very good breakfast!
Thanks for you attention!
Thank you all!
yes, the flour for Baozi is wheat.
Wheat is planted in the north part of China.
baozi can be meat or vegetables inside. it's delicious. it's like dumpling but 'baozi' has thicker dough.
are they the "pot stickers"?
You can see what Baozi is now!
