Directions
Char Siew Puffs (Char Siew Sow) – Dim Sum, I have not tried this recipe yet, but hopefully will make this soon as I love Char Siew Sow! Recipe found on internet – Jo’s Bakery Prep time includes 30mins chilling time for the dough NOTE – this recipe is not really authentic as the fat used in traditional Chinese pastry is usually lard instead of butter , I was kind of disappointed with this recipe The pastry crust wasn’t as tasty as I’d hoped , Thanks for sharing this recipe It was good
