If you like to eat steamed cakes and have certain cooking conditions, you can make them at home using your favorite ingredients. This way, the steamed cakes will be more in line with your taste. So, how do you make steamed cake delicious? Below we will introduce the production methods of white flour steamed cake, health-preserving red date corn steamed cake and pumpkin steamed cake.

1. How to make white flour steamed cake

1. Choose a bowl of appropriate size, apply oil on the surface, add appropriate amount of warm water (water temperature is about 33 degrees Celsius, not too hot to touch), add dry yeast and salt and mix well, then pour in flour and vegetable oil to make a thick batter, and mix well. The thickness of the batter is not strict, but it depends on personal taste;

2. Add a small amount of water to the steamer and heat it to about 40 degrees Celsius (slightly hot to the touch), put the bowl into the water to keep the batter warm, and cover the pot to let the dough rise for about 30 minutes;

3. When the dough has expanded to 2 to 3 times its original volume, steam it over high heat until cooked.

Note: Since a rapid fermentation method is used, care must be taken to control the fermentation time of the dough, so as not to over-ferment the dough and create a smell of alcohol. In addition, the more yeast you put in, the faster the dough will rise, and vice versa. However, the more yeast you put in does not necessarily mean better. If you put in too much yeast, the speed of rising will be difficult to control and the dough will easily over-rise.

Features: The taste is similar to steamed buns and bread. If the water temperature, yeast and other aspects are properly adjusted, starting from kneading the dough, it can be made within 1 hour at the fastest.

2. How to make healthy red date corn steamed cake

1Dissolve yeast and sugar in water, mix cornstarch and flour together;

2. Pour the yeast water into the mixed powder and stir evenly with chopsticks;

3. Sprinkle some raisins or chopped red dates in and mix well;

4. Pour the batter into a greased container, cover with a wet cloth and let it rise to double height;

5. Steam for 20 minutes and simmer for 5 minutes. After cooling, turn it upside down and cut it into pieces;

3. Pumpkin cake making method

1. Slice the pumpkin and steam it in a rice cooker (you can cook the pumpkin in any way you like, steam, boil or microwave...)

2. Add sugar while it is still hot and mash it into pumpkin puree. Let it cool down and set aside

3. Pour the cooled pumpkin puree into the bread machine bucket and add all other ingredients; (Don’t add all the water at once, because the water content of pumpkin puree varies depending on the way the pumpkin is cooked, so the amount of water should be determined according to the actual situation)

4. Stir the pumpkin batter into a paste; (In fact, you don’t have to use a bread machine to stir the batter. I just want to be convenient and let the bread machine help stir while eating. In fact, you can just use chopsticks to stir it evenly into a paste)

5. Apply a layer of butter (or salad oil) on the bottom and around the mold, put in the pumpkin batter, and place it in a warm and humid place to ferment until it doubles in size (I used a 6-inch chiffon cake mold)

6. After the pumpkin batter is fermented, wash and dry the wolfberries and arrange them into your favorite shapes on the batter. Put it in the steamer, turn to medium heat after the water boils, and cook for 25 minutes. After turning off the heat, simmer for another 5 minutes.

7. Let it cool after it comes out of the oven; if the surface is wet (with sweat), you can turn the cake upside down on the grill. If it feels dry, do not turn it upside down. Let it cool before removing it from the mold.

8. After the steamed cake has cooled, remove it from the mold and cut it into pieces.
