Steamed stuffed buns are popular snack throughout China, though more popular in the North, with many small shops specializing in just steamed buns in even the smaller Chinese cities and towns.Steamed buns are made from wheat flour and leavening agents and have a spongy feel. They are steamed on large perforated trays of bamboo or steel, usually stacked over a large wok of boiling water so that the steam rises through the trays.
