The Story Behind the Dish
Steamed wheat buns have been part of northern Chinese cooking for many centuries. A popular legend credits the strategist Zhuge Liang, in the 3rd century, with inventing their ancestor, the plain mantou.
Filled buns — baozi — became everyday food across China, sold from steaming bamboo baskets at street stalls for breakfast and served in teahouses as part of dim sum.
⭐ Why It's Famous
They're China's go-to grab-and-go breakfast, and a perfectly pleated bun is a point of pride for any home cook.
💡 Fun Fact
Tianjin's Goubuli, founded in 1858, is one of China's most famous baozi brands — its buns are traditionally made with exactly 18 pleats.
