V1 A type of steamed, filled bun or bread-like dumpling in various Chinese cuisines.

There are many variations in fillings ([[meat]] or vegetarian) and preparation (usually steamed). In its bun-like aspect it is very similar to the traditional Chinese [i]mantou[/i] (and regionally the term [i]mantou[/i] may refer to baozi as well).

In Japan, baozi are known as [i]manjuu[/i], the Japanese rendering of [i]mantou[/i]. A meat-filled [i]manjuu[/i] is a [i]nikuman[/i]; those referred to as [i]manjuu[/i] typically have a sweet filling.

Sweet [i]manjuu[/i] became even more popular due to [i][[Love Live! School Idol Project]][/i] since it is the signature item of Homura Bakery, which [[Kousaka Honoka]]'s family owns and lives over. Good Smile Company, as a result, produced official Homura Bakery [i]manjuu[/i] in packs.

Other names for baozi include bao, bau, humbow, nunu, pow or pau.
