How to cut small steamed buns

There are many ways to eat, but you must eat some healthy food. To be healthy, you need to cook it yourself. The knife-cut steamed buns introduced below are very suitable for making.

1. Prepare the materials

2.1 Use chopsticks to add the water you just prepared into the basin little by little and stir until it becomes cotton-like.

3.2 Mix condensed milk, sugar and yeast with 100g warm water and let it stand for a while. In summer, you can also use cold water directly. Don't add salt at this time. Be careful not to let the water temperature exceed 37 degrees, which is almost body temperature!

4.121 Cover with film and place in a warm place to ferment until it is twice as large next time. In this November weather, I put it on the balcony for about an hour. Use your finger to dip it in water and poke the hole until it doesn't shrink or collapse. I can’t stand this picture, it looks like a belly button no matter how you look at it! Unintentional mistake haha.

5.212 Add 1 gram of salt and 2 grams of lard in the bowl. The dough kneaded in this way will be not only chewy but also shiny. Knead the dough into a ball and move it to the chopping board and start kneading it. After about ten minutes, the dough will become fine, smooth and tough.

6. Start kneading the dough again, which is the key step to release the air. Knead it slowly! You can hear the crackling sound of bubbles being squeezed. Try to expel all the air from the dough to make the steamed buns more delicious! Cut it with a knife halfway through to see if there are any bubbles inside. In this picture, there are still some air bubbles inside, so knead it for a while longer.

7. See how there are almost no pores now. OK

8. Roll the dough into long strips. You can make one or two strips.

9. Cut the dough into pieces of similar size. Note that a sharp knife is best. Cut the noodles cleanly so that they look good.

10. Roll the dough towards the middle so that the steamed buns will look good. Arrange the steamed buns neatly on the steaming cloth. If you don’t have a steaming cloth, just apply some oil!

11. Add appropriate amount of water to the steamer, place the steamer on the pot and cover it with a lid. Place in a sunny place and ferment twice until it doubles in size.

12. These are steamed buns that have been fermented twice. That's it!

13. Bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to medium heat and steam for ten minutes. This time needs to be increased or decreased depending on the size of the steamed buns! When the time is up, turn off the heat and simmer for 4 minutes, then open the lid. Be careful not to let the steam drip onto the steamed buns!

14. This is how white, rich and beautiful women are created! White, smooth, delicate and soft knife-cut steamed buns paired with a bowl of rice porridge are a great way to nourish the stomach and replenish qi!
