Asian Pacific American Heritage Month: Owen Chen celebrates with his favorite meal!

Owen Chen, Manager, Client Solutions out of NY, shares his favorite Chinese dish with us!

Hi, everyone!

To celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, I wanted to share one of my favorite Chinese foods, Char Siu Bao, or also known as “BBQ Pork Buns”. These delectable, buttered buns are baked (sometimes steamed) and filled to the brim with BBQ pork filling.

They have been a staple in my life growing up. When I was younger, my dad would pick me up from school, and if I was lucky, we’d visit our local Chinese bakery and order a ton of them. He’d sit and sip on his coffee, while I’d devour 2-3 of these delicious buns in a sitting. If you’re interested in baking these, here’s the recipe! https://thewoksoflife.com/chinese-bbq-pork-buns-cha-siu-bao/.

If you’re not a baker (like myself), I’d recommend visiting your local Chinese bakery and trying them! I promise you won’t regret it!
