We...Thanks Jenny, I must say they are indeed yummy! Well, the red dot on the outside of the buns serve to differentiate the buns according to their filling since store-bought buns are often made in bulk in the factory. My guess is red goes with the colour of the char siu filling cos' traditionally, red fermented bean curd are added to the seasoning of char siu (nowadays some simply add red food colouring) which turn the exterior of the meat dark red after roasting. But perhaps Google will have a better answer as to the origins of the red dot. :)The Dream Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06778104023381153967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1425748417052699960.post-27460426857231380052015-06-04T06:28:44.505+08:002015-06-04T06:28:44.505+08:00Thanks Janie!

That's why I love homemade since we can stuff as much as we want, compared to the miserable filling we get from some store-bought ones.. :)The Dream Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06778104023381153967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1425748417052699960.post-26410846962909324722015-05-29T01:21:45.998+08:002015-05-29T01:21:45.998+08:00Hi Angela, thank you for your lovely note.
