  • Was a total #buyer and ordered some food from a home delivery ad on facebook (so now I'm inundated with all the home delivery ads as I've outed myself as an easy mark now).

    But it was for fancy Bao and I am a sucker for a Bao and there's no asian supermarkets anywhere near me to pick up normal char sui bao so I couldn't resist.

    plus we finally have room for a decent sized freezer after only having a fridge in our flat in mordor for last 10 years so I can actually store stuff like this.

    Even with a discount code and free delivery it still cost me ~£8 per pack for 5 packs of 6x frozen bao so def. not cheap but they arrived yesterday and the Beef Rendang ones I had for my Dinner was banging.

    I didn't have a steamer as we tossed a lot of the worse for wear stuff we had when we moved so had to buy a new one but grabbed a 10" one bamboo one from amazon and it cooked them perfectly.

    my birthday is coming up in just over a month and I think I may use it as an excuse to finally make my own char sui bao from scratch in bulk once I find a decent butchers to source the pork from.

    I used code TAKE20 on a make your own bundle of 5 as that seemed to be the sweet spot that gave the discount and free shipping

    i lied though it appears to be more like £9 a pack which is still better than takeaway prices but not normal home frozen ones. not sure I'd pay full price of £12 unless they were for a very very occasional special treat.
