9.
Steamed bun blanks are covered with wet cloth or 饧 noodles. The noodle time is related to the temperature. The standard is to lightly press the surface with your hand. If the noodle pit can rebound quickly, it is good for the noodles.

Steamed over high heat, simmer for a few minutes before uncovering
Tips:
1. The amount of dry kneading powder added later is best not to exceed 40% of the total flour used in the previous dough
2. You must be very patient when kneading. The quality of the kneading directly determines the appearance of the bun. Whether it is smooth or not is entirely a matter of handwork
3. Don't open the lid in a hurry after the steamed bun is steamed, so as to prevent the skin from wrinkling and shrinking; don't simmer for too long to prevent the steam from softening the skin
