Detailed Steps for Cooking Piggy Chestnut Bun
Dissolve yeast in warm water.
Add flour to make dough, cut a small piece of dough, knead with a drop of red food coloring until evenly mixed.
Roll out the pink dough, make a round shape for the pig’s nose, and triangle shapes for the pig’s ears.
Divide the white dough into 5 portions, wrap them with chestnut filling.
Seal with the edges down, slightly flatten, attach the pig’s ears and nose with water. Use a toothpick to make the pig’s eyes and nostrils.
Place in a steamer, let it rise for 20 minutes.
Let it rise until the buns are larger and feel light, then steam over medium-low heat for 20 minutes.
When the time is up, turn off the heat, let it sit for 10 minutes before uncovering.
