2. After mixing evenly, use your hands to knead the flour paste into a smooth dough, then seal the bowl with plastic wrap and leave it here to rest, which takes about half an hour;

3. After the dough has risen, take it out and put it on the chopping board and knead it into a long strip, then cut it into sections, and then knead the cut sections into small strips. Finally, twist the two small strips together to make a twist shape.

4. The long strips kneaded into a twist shape will have two ends. If you stuff the two ends into the twist, you can't see them. As shown in the picture, the two ends of the unstuck end are separated, and the stuffed end is invisible.
