What is "mantou"?

Mantou is a type of steamed bread in Chinese cuisine that is made with a simple mixture of flour, water, yeast, and sugar. The dough is typically kneaded until it is smooth and elastic, and then allowed to rise for several hours. The risen dough is then shaped into small balls or rolls and steamed until it is fluffy and tender. Mantou can be served plain or flavored with ingredients such as green onions, sesame seeds, or red bean paste. Mantou is a staple food in many parts of China and is often served as a side dish to savory dishes such as stir-fries or stews. It is a versatile and comforting food that is enjoyed by many for its soft and pillowy texture and mild, slightly sweet flavor.
