PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Royal Gourmet's Chicken Bun (also known as Ji Bao or 雞包仔) is a lighter take on classic bao: pillowy steamed buns stuffed with juicy minced or shredded chicken mixed with earthy shiitake and straw mushrooms, crisp bamboo shoots, ginger, and coriander for fresh, aromatic flavour. These frozen buns steam up light and fluffy with a subtly savoury filling—perfect for quick snacks, dim sum spreads, or pairing with other favourites!
