The kids are all on winter vacation. They clamored that there was nothing to do all day long and rubbed the dough. The mother and son had a happy parent-child time!
2020 is the home of the cute little mouse. Let’s steam a pot of white and fat little mouse. If the child says he wants to eat the leader, he must be the leader in learning in the coming year!

During the New Year, every family in the north will steam buns. Now the difference in diet between the north and the south is getting smaller and easier. The convenient pasta has also entered the southern family. After the New Year, everyone wants to sleep in, steam a big pot of buns in advance, and have breakfast. It's becoming more relaxed, hot buns, soak a cup of milk, eat well and sleep well, this is called the New Year!
In the Year of the Rat, let's steam a large litter of small mice. It's delicious and fun. Kids won't be picky eaters!

Ingredients

2020 Daji New Year Mouse Buns

1. Pour flour, yeast, water, and oil together to knead into a smooth dough, separate 90 grams of beetroot powder and knead it into red, pull 10 grams of white dough and knead it into pink, 5 grams of white dough and pumpkin powder and knead it into yellow, 2 grams of white flour Add bamboo charcoal powder and knead it into black.

2. The dough of various colors is kneaded evenly.

3. Take 20 grams of red exhaust, rub it into a long strip to form a 2 shape, 1 gram of white, rub out two drops of water, and rub a little water to stick it on.

4. 25 grams of white exhaust is rounded to make the head of the mouse.

5. 1 gram of white 0.5 gram of pink is placed in the palm of the hand and twisted into a pointed spindle shape.

6. Press the pink noodles and the white noodles into an oval shape respectively, place the pink on top of the white, press gently to flatten it, and divide it into two from the middle.

7. Pinch the two sides together and dip a chopsticks in some water to help bond them together.

8. Glue the finished ears to the sides of the head.

9. Rub the red dough the size of a rice grain to make a tongue and stick it on the middle and lower part of the white dough.

10. Put the white pasta on the chopping board, cut it into a small rectangle with a cutter, and cut a mark in the middle to make the teeth. It is too small. Use a toothpick to pick it up and stick it on.

11. Stick two white round balls on the top of the mouth, press a little, and then rub a small pink ball on top.

12. Use black dough to make eyebrows and beards.

13. The red rubbing circle is a little less than 1 gram, the bottom is slightly flattened, and the yellow rubbing strip is surrounded by a red circle to make a hat.

14. Stick the little hat on top of your head.

15. 0 is very simple. The exhaust rubs the long strip to form a 0 character. The mouse method is the same as above. The expression of the eyes can be changed a little, and you can do whatever you like.

16. Put the finished steamed buns in a steamer, heat the water to warm, cover and ferment for 20 minutes until the dough becomes fluffy and smooth. Bring the water to a boil and steam for 15 minutes, turn off the heat, and simmer for 35 minutes before removing the lid.

Tips:
To shape pasta, I like to use the one-shot method, which means that the dough is shaped directly after it is kneaded. The surface of the steamed buns made by Yifa is smoother, and the internal structure is also fluffy and soft. If the dough is fermented and then shaped, the fermented dough must be carefully kneaded to completely exhaust the gas inside before modeling, and the gas is discharged If it is not complete, the small bubbles will affect the smoothness of the steamed bun dough.
This amount of ingredients is just enough to make four 2020 mouse buns.
I wish you all the best for the 2020 Year of the Rat, full of money, smooth work, and all the best!
