      They were allowed to do any flavour, the only thing that was meant to be Japanese, was the steamed buns, which obviously, is the issue, since it is Chinese.
      They didn't think that India is the same as Japan. They just chose an Indian filling.

      With in reason you can? White beans actually hold a lot of different flavors really well. Green tea, coffee, chocolate just plain old red beans are good. They also have pizza buns over there as well as chestnut and probably a few other super experimental flavors because it’s Japan and they do that, a lot.

      I would have made a pizza one. Creative by GBB standards, but relatively standard in Japanese convenience stores, so there is some authenticity. Also since the Japanese word for steamed buns is “man,” a pizza one is a “pizza man” and I just can’t resist that.

I have made a lot Japanese food with Japanese ingredients over the years and even made homemade ramen which took 2 days to make plus steamed pork buns to go on the side of that. Literally the Japanese pork buns (nikuman) I made were simple and delicious with not that many ingredients. It is literally not that hard people how tf do you mess this up and not even know which ingredients are Japanese…. I guess the meme about Brits not being able to cook is correct 😔

    lol seriously, Japan has soooo many amazing desserts, from the traditional daifuku, nerikiri, and taiyaki, to the more modern Japanese cotton cheesecake, raindrop cake, and mochi ice cream. Japan is well known worldwide for its unique and intricate cuisine, and the show chooses steamed buns... which is a traditional Chinese cuisine... (I know Japan has nikuman buns, but it is a variation of the traditional Chinese steamed pork buns).

    “饅頭(manjyuu)” might be the steam bun traditionally eaten at japan, although similar things are found in China too. They even share the same Chinese characters because it originates from China, but it came in Japan at around 1200 A.D. so they did develop differently. Sweet red bean will basically be the only filling since we didn’t eat meat (one of the big difference with the Chinese ones).
    “酒饅頭(Saka-Manjyu)” is my favorite. Uses Japanese Sake lees to ferment the dough, so there is a slight smell of sake when steamed. Warm and delicious.
    And no, we do not fill it with pork or curry😂

      Agree with hypotalapotamus. I feel she's a good baker. I searched for the video and watch the part where the judge said fortune cookies is a stereotype and he also said "downgrading Chinese culture to Chinese restaurant". The theme was CNY so maybe the judge expecting sometime more to the CNY celebrations instead of a Chinese take out restaurant?
      I don't know how Chinese in other country celebrates their CNY but in my country or maybe I should say in my family, we don't really use fortune cookies in any occasion? I've been celebrating CNY since little and I've never seen fortune cookies in anyone's house. Not many Chinese restaurant that I've been to have fortune cookies. They normally give us wet tissues or herbal sweets XD
      Maybe things such as red pockets, tangerine trees, firecrackers, fireworks and calligraphy would be more suitable for the Chinese New Year theme.

    @jessiec668 Рік тому +2

    I dunno, my experience of both eating and researching nikuman is that Japanese people are willing to try a lot of different things as filling, beyond the traditional pork or chicken. Pizza sauce and cheese, seafood, curry, taco meat, squid ink, etc... And even sweet fillings like red bean paste, cream, green tea paste, etc. Making the bun into cute shapes isn't unheard of either... Different convenience store brands have done Hatsune Miku buns and Hello Kitty buns. I'm sure there's even more varieties that I'm totally unaware of.
    That being said, yes it would have been nice if they had chosen a different type of food that is more unique to Japan. Taiyaki or an pan would have been good choices. Or at the very least, use the Japanese words for what they were making besides just "buns" and maybe explain the history/cultural context a bit more.
