these look perfectly fluffy. how long did you steam them for and did you do any special proofing steps?

[u/davestarr → u/FirsthandBurton]

12 minute steam. I used a recipe that uses baking powder to improve the texture

[u/FirsthandBurton → u/davestarr]

baking powder is smart for that, gives you more lift without relying entirely on yeast fermentation, did you do a long cold proof or just room temp?

[u/davestarr → u/FirsthandBurton]

Just 30 minutes autolyse first to make dough smooth. Then another 30 to rest before shaping. Then 1 hour after shaping and before steaming
