  • 1/2 tsp salt

To make the sauce:

  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

  • To knead the dough, continue to stretch between both hands back and forth, you need to do this for about ten minutes until the dough is very springy and stretchy.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise in double size (estimate 45 minutes to an hour).
  • Use the baking tray with parchment paper.
  • When the dough ready, use your scale, cut the dough and measure each around 60-63 grams.
  • Knead into ball ball-shaped and add some sausage. Arrange on baking. Gently cover with plastic wrap let the dough rest for 10 minutes or until they double in size.
  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Brush beat egg yolk on surfaces and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Let cool.
  • Make a sauce:
  • In the medium pot, add some water and turn on medium heat. Put a glass bowl on the pot, whisk eggs with powdered sugar then slowly add oils.
  • Brush a layer of sauce on top of buns and generous sprinkle dried shredded pork.
