In reply to Frank Silva. Frank, I am so sorry that I can't help with that because I have no ideas about it too. It is usually served as breakfast on my side.

Thank you for the exceptional recipes. We love Chineese food and specially the above. Sometimes we have been able to order all of the above with a bit of salty dry fish. What sort of salted fish or pickled fish is used please.

In reply to lulu. I suggest finishing the steaming process and then cool down to freeze.

hi Elaine, love this recipe.

I have a question, is t possible to freeze after I have wrapped it in the lotus leaf and reheat it (Steam) just when I want to eat it?

cheers

In reply to Sunnie. Sunnie, Thanks so much for the reminding. The nutritional facts are calculated by the plugin directly. I correct it but it seems quite high too.

Is your nutritional facts correct. 1 serving is more calories one eats in a day. Should be corrected if per serving

In reply to Elaine. I'm curious about the reason! I would guess the problem has to do with arable land (that's fertile and safe to grow food on) vs. the population of China. I know China imports a lot of soybeans from Brazil and the US, and also owns some huge companies in other countries that produce food. but that's about all I know!

In reply to Ann. Thanks Ann. Parchment paper may not work because hard for the vapour to go through. You can search for natural leaves or using a gauze.

Love dimsum dishes which are flavorful, delicious and nostalgic for me and my spouse.. Always prefer them over other foods. Developed a taste for them back home in the Philippines, where we had the best dimsum comparing those to the US dimsum. Our friends used to hang out at these dimsum places whee we shared happy and wonderful bonding memories. Thank you for your blog and share. Will be trying these out soon. Question, if no lotus leaves, you mentioned use if parchment paoer, please elaborate. Thanks again.
