Gawd it has been sooo long since I have blogged that I forgot how to log on to my site. Well I promise that my lengthy hiatus is now over. I have been eating and cooking loads over the last year since my post, but just have had very little time to sit down and write about it.
Since launching Kooky Bakes, I've been spending less time in the kitchen cooking for me and eating out loads. After spending hours in the kitchen baking one of the last things I really look forward to doing is spending hours in the kitchen cooking up tasty meals, except on my few days off.
One of my favourite things to spend a day making was the legendary Momofuku Steamed Pork Buns. Many a pre-kookybakes Sunday was spend making and noshing on these heavenly steamed buns of loveliness. Much to my surprise one Saturday morning in my stroll through the School Yard Market at Broadway Market, I found Yum Bun. Yum Bun is a food stall devoted to the Steamed Bun!
Damn these buns are tasty. Pillow soft steamed buns filled with a thick slab of slow cooked pork belly that has just been crisped slightly on the planchet. Nestled with the pork is a tangy pickled Asian slaw, spring onion and cucumber. To sauce it up, the pork is slathered in hoisin, mild sriracha and a spicy homemade kimchi ketchup. At £5 for two buns this is an excellent two fists full of food!
Find Yum Bun at The School Yard Market off Broadway Market (Across from London Fields E8) every Saturday from 10am till 5pm
