A common modern serve pairs them with sweetened condensed milk for dipping. Soft claims that one restaurant invented frying mantou are folk—the technique is widespread. This page covers the fried preparation; the base staple remains [[Mantou]], and it is not filled [[Baozi]].&lt;ref name=&quot;wp&quot;&gt;[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantou Source]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Characteristics ==<br /> <br /> Crisp deep-gold crust; airy steamed crumb inside; mildly yeasty; sweet when dipped in condensed milk, or savory with other dips.<br /> <br /> == Ingredients (overview) ==<br /> <br /> Day-old or fresh mantou; frying oil; optional condensed milk or savory dips.
