minus-squareForce_majeure123@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 months agoNothing changed about them, they are still in the dumpling family
minus-squareSeagoon_@aussie.zoneOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·4 months agoI think it’s a modern problem. Bao have traditionally been eaten in soup/stew but a restaurant in Shanghai started calling steamed buns dumplings. Bao means bag , it’s a reference to filling, but dumpling is a reference to how it’s cooked.
minus-squareCEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4 months agoI thought bao means bun. That’s why you only need to say bao otherwise you are saying bun bun.
minus-squareStudSpud The Starchy@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-24 months agoI’d say bao bao and blow their minds Edit: saying “bao bun” is equivalent to saying “naan bread” or “chai tea”; it’s basically saying “bread bread” or “tea tea”. Bao means bun in Cantonese, and bao is a Cantonese food.
