Directions
Chinese Steamed Flower Buns (Hua Juan), In Eastern China, Hua Juan are filled with sesame oil and green onion, and most of the recipes I’ve found online give that method. In the Western provinces of Yunnan and Gansu, where I’ve lived, they are flavored with Sichuan pepper, so that’s the recipe I’m posting here. These are a simple breakfast or snack food. They may also be served as part of a Chinese meal., In Eastern China, Hua Juan are filled with sesame oil and green onion, and most of the recipes I’ve found online give that method.
