We love these

I think these are great. Some folks think the pork I'd too sweet but that's what the pickled onions are for. They balance out the sweet perfectly. Portion a little small for my husband but I serve with a side salad or roasted vegetables and it's a great meal.

A Taste of Asia

Enjoyed preparing Asian meal at home. Buns had nice texture and pork was gently seasoned. Added hoisin sauce to bun before adding meat and ingredients for more flavor.

So good!

Never tried these before and I was very impressed! Bao buns were soft and delicious and the pork was filling and tasty. Can’t believe it only took a few
minutes in the microwave to prep. Will be ordering again!

Flavorful. Easy to Assemble.

We really enjoyed the pork bao buns. Buns were easy to assemble. Ingredients were fresh and packed lots of flavor. Just the right amount of ingredients to fully stuff all 8 bao buns included. We didn't follow instructions exactly - we steamed our buns instead of using the microwave, so they were soft and pillowy.
