i want to make that perfect siopao 100%, meaning consistently. my problem is that my siopao shrinks, i used different proofing time, i used rolling boil water, not so hot water etc., but my buns sometimes shrinks creating wrinkles on the surface, anyone out there with suggestions, my dough is perfect, just the steaming process.
