Best Baozi
in Beijing
Baozi are the ultimate comfort food and the primary fuel for the Beijing morning commute. Unlike southern variations, Beijing-style buns feature soft, pillowy, yeast-risen dough that is steamed in large bamboo trays. They are typically larger and more robust, with savory fillings like pork with scallions or lamb. A great baozi is defined by the flavorful "soup" trapped inside the dough during the steaming process. It is a simple yet satisfying staple that represents the heart of the city's wheat-based breakfast culture.
