Pai pau (排包- which literally translates to rows of bread), is a popular bread in Hong Kong. It is the basic asian bread dough which is shaped in rolls, arranged closely together and baked. To eat them, one is to pull them apart and enjoy the incredible softness. This bread is rich and super fluffy, full flavor from the eggs and cream..
Having lived in San Francisco for many years never seen pai pau in any Chinese bakeries even now. Just other types of pasties and now which they do make some. So look like I will make this recipe at home to enjoy some.
Pai Pau, I thought Pai Gow gambling....he he he!
