oggi, you can also try using "barbecue pulled pork" from Sam's Club for the filling.

Hoi sin sauce and char siu sauce may be available at your grocery stores. You can make char siu at home. The recipe is here.
hi there, i tried the recipe, tama naman ang measurement pero bakit yellowish ang puto ko at lubog ang ibabaw
Anon @9/21/2011 Did you use whole eggs? The recipe calls for egg whites only. I don't know why yours turned yellow and didn't rise. Maybe the type of flour and baking powder?
As for your second comment, sorry, but I don't respond by email. Click the Subscribe by email button below to receive my response. Thanks.:)
*-*Oooo i love Puto *-* my mom come's from Philippine's && every b-Day && Party we eat Puto && at the Breakfest(;
OMG I must try this recipe, it looks so yummy! One question, can I bake them in a bain marie instead of using the steamer? I don't have the individual puto molds yet so I'll have to bake them in the oven and will have to make do with a muffin pan. Thanks :-)
Yes, why not. Let me know how they turn out.:)
hi oggi, i would like to ask your permission to use your puto photo (above) for a show on lifestyle network. we can credit photo to you in ending credits of show. thanks so much.

I have no idea why it should turn yellow if you used just egg whites. It's probably your flour but I can't say for sure. Sorry.
What is a substitute for cream of tartar
Anonymous@11/30/13
A half teaspoon fresh lemon juice would be a good substitute but add it after the whites are beaten until foamy.
