Nikuman

Nikuman are Japanese-style steamed pork buns which were influenced by the traditional Chinese baozi. They consists of leavened wheat dough wrapped around a flavorful ground pork filling. The meat is combined with different vegetables and usually seasoned with soy sauce and various condiments and spices.

The soft, warm, and juicy nikuman buns are mostly enjoyed in wintertime as a popular and comforting street food. They are available in many Chinese restaurants and numerous grocery stores throughout the country.
