Tips:
1. Preparation of alkaline water: Dip a little bit of alkaline with your hands and dissolve it with 5ml of cold water, not too much.
Note: When making old noodles for steamed buns, if you don’t add alkali, the steamed buns will be sour, but if you add too much alkali, they will become basic military steamed buns, which are yellow in color and taste astringent. It’s unpalatable, so everyone must pay attention when putting the alkaline water, it only needs a little bit~
2. White sugar: Qingcha people like to eat steamed buns with a little sweetness, so when making steamed buns, they will put an appropriate amount of white sugar, but according to personal taste, you can also choose not to put it~
3. Be careful when steaming and never open the lid.
