Cornmeal Wotou
1.
Put cornmeal and white flour in a large bowl at a ratio of 4:1, and then add appropriate amount of sugar according to personal taste (I added 1 spoon, and the sweetness of red dates is slightly sweet when I eat it)
2.
Add a small amount of hot water several times, and the water temperature should be at 70-80℃ (pour on the dry surface every time you pour the water, repeat the pour on the wet surface, the noodles will become sticky) pour it into a dough when there is no dry surface Proof for 10 minutes
3.
Wash the red dates, remove the pit, and cut into small granules
4.
Boil water in the pot and start making wotou. Knead the red dates into the dough, take a small piece of dough into a circle, and then cut a hole from the bottom, pinch the dough with your thumb in the hole, and finally shape it into a straw hat shape with a hole at the bottom
5.
Put the dumplings into the pot one by one, steam for 20 minutes on high heat, turn off the heat and simmer for 5 minutes before they can be out of the pot.
Tips:
1. The noodles made with hot water are softer and stronger\n\n2. When the noodles are ironed, the water is only poured on the dry surface to prevent the noodles from sticking to the hands when kneading the noodles\n\n3. If the noodles are sticky when making the noodles, You can dip your hands in clean water\n\n
