  say it isnt so.
okay. so we're in the middle of lunch. having dumplings & xlbs (no where as good as DTF or CJ) for the third day in a row. laine & i are feeling very happy & healthy. xlbs are afterall steamed!! no oil!! *hOOray* so then we all decide to ask the chief chef amongst as all how she reckons the xlbs have such fabulous 'juice'. & it turns out she NOES for a fact cause she MAKES them'.

JUICY DETAILS:
1) fry pig fat
2) let it cool and solidify in freezer
3) cut up into little cubes & add to xlbs when wrapping the little baos.
4) steam.

please. anyone. tell me there are millions of recipes to making them xlbs. tell me the juices are the result of steaming meat in a xlb skin.
 
Comments:
i think it's just frozen stock. maybe lard was used in the early days...
