Bánh bao (literally "dumplings") is a Chinese bun based on the Cantonese tai pao, or da bao (large bun),[1] which was introduced to Vietnam by Chinese immigrants.[2] It is a ball-shaped bun containing pork or chicken meat, onions, eggs, mushrooms and vegetables. It often has Chinese sausage and a portion of a hard-boiled egg inside. They are filled with savory fillings, the most common being seasoned ground pork and quail egg. A vegetarian version also exists, containing a mix of mushrooms, tofu, glass noodles, and vegetables like carrots or jicama.[3] Banh bao is a popular street food and is typically eaten as breakfast or a snack.[4]
