Kuo Kuang Bun Introduction
Kuang Hsiang Steamed Buns, located near the intersection of Liancheng Road and Xinsheng Street in Zhonghe, has been established for over 15 years. The owner, Mr. Hsiao, invested 600,000 TWD just to learn how to make a delicious steamed bun. These buns do not contain yeast; instead, they use a sourdough starter and are naturally fermented to preserve the original aroma of the buns. It takes about 12 hours to produce each bun from start to finish, and the entire process is done by hand, which gives the buns a layered texture and a chewy consistency. Additionally, Mr. Hsiao has developed various flavors of buns, including vegetarian mushroom and bamboo shoots, pork, sesame, and red bean paste. To attract younger consumers, he also created a cheese and ham roll, presenting a new delicious version of steamed buns.
