What is buchi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Buchi is a Filipino adaptation of Jian dui, a Chinese fried pastry made from glutinous rice flour, a sweet filling, and a sesame seed coating. The sticky rice flour is mixed with a liquid (usually water) to form a soft dough, shaped into a ball to encase the filling, and coated in sesame seeds before frying to golden perfection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also known in the United States as sesame seed balls, they're commonly sold at most Asian restaurants, dim sum houses, and bakeshops. They're golden and crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside, making a delicious and filling snack or dessert.<\/p>\n\n\n
