Today I finally tried to make "Little Tiger Flower Bun".
The originality of the little tiger flower steamed buns comes from Jiaodong big steamed buns. People in Jiaodong cannot do without flowering steamed buns during festivals, weddings and funerals, and family decorations. They are commonly known as Jiaodong big steamed buns.
Each kind of glutinous rice noodles has different auspicious meanings. Just like this little tiger spends steamed buns, it can be sent off for Chinese New Year or when a boy is born at home, which means that the boy will live a life and be alive and well, and there will be achievements in the future. The gift of swallow pastry to a baby girl means that the girl is lively and cute, and is ingenious.
The first time I saw the "little tiger flower bun", I felt so cumbersome. It happened to be very busy when the Chinese New Year was approaching, so I didn't try it.
Today, I made a small tiger bun with pumpkin dough. It is yellow and bright, and the color is very beautiful even if it is not baked.
Although it was not very successful, after my own efforts, I was very happy to see the results. "
