MANTOU FAQ
What is Mantou?
Mantou is a traditional Chinese steamed bread that dates back over 2,000 years. Originally a Northern Chinese staple made from wheat flour, mantou is soft, fluffy, and mildly sweet. Unlike bao, which are filled, mantou is typically plain or lightly flavoured, making it a versatile side dish, snack, or breakfast item across generations of Chinese households.
How do I eat Mantou?
Mantou is incredibly versatile! Enjoy it steamed and warm straight from the steamer, or lightly pan-fry for a golden, crispy crust. It’s perfect on its own, dipped in condensed milk, or served alongside savoury dishes like braised pork or spicy tofu. However you like it—mantou is comfort food at its simplest and finest.
Is Mantou healthy?
Our High Fibre, Low GI Mantou is crafted for the health-conscious. Made with a nourishing mix of wholemeal flour, chia, flax, quinoa, hempseeds, and corn flour, it’s naturally high in fibre and designed to support sustained energy. No MSG, preservatives, or artificial colours—just wholesome, plant-powered goodness.
How do I prepare Mantou?
Simple and quick! Just steam it for 8–10 minutes from frozen, or microwave for 40–60 seconds for a soft, fluffy texture. Want something a little crispier? Try slicing and pan-frying it with a touch of oil. However you cook it, mantou is ready in minutes.
