1. Take the steamed sweet potato out of the refrigerator, cut a piece, cut into pieces, add water, stir into a juice in a meat grinder, filter, remove the residue, leave only the water, and heat the beaten juice in the microwave for 2 minutes
2. 900 grams of flour, 100 grams of corn flour
3. The old noodles that I left for making buns last time (the old noodles are less), because they are frozen in the refrigerator, so you have to take them out in advance and put them on the table and wait for it to soften slowly.
4. Pour the weighed flour into the basin
5. Stir evenly with a spoon
6. Spoon sugar
7. Because there is less old noodles, add 2 spoons of yeast powder (2 g, 1 g per spoon)
8. After stirring well, leave the middle of the flour and put the old noodles
9. Prepare the heated sweet potato juice and warm boiled water in advance and put it in the thermos cup (the thermos cup is 350 ml), slowly add the water to the basin, pour the water from the middle, and add the water little by little.
10. When kneading the dough, you can start to knead the dough. When the dough is kneaded, boil a pot of water on the gas stove.
11. Knead into a smooth dough
12. Cover with cling film (this cling film is not big enough, you can only cover the left side and then the right side, don’t leave a gap, the two cling films overlap each other), knead the dough, and boil the water.
13. When the water is boiled, turn off the fire, put the kettle on the ground, immediately put the basin on the gas stove, and cover it with a thick plastic bag
14. Cover the pot again, put a towel on it, and wait for it to ferment (I sent it for 3 and a half hours)
15. It’s enough to make the noodles twice as big
16. Lay the kneading mat, put the made dough on the kneading mat and knead evenly, let air out, knead as much as possible if you have time
17. Add 2 grams of alkali (add a little bit of alkali to make alkali water), add it to the dough and knead together, knead evenly
18. Divide the kneaded dough into two halves, roll one half into a strip, and cover the other half with a dry steaming cloth
19. Roll half of the dough into a long strip
20. Use a noodle cutter to cut into even sections. Dip a little flour on each cooked bun and place it on the steaming cloth at a distance.
21. Made two layers, a total of 15
22. After the steamed buns are all done, put them in the steamer and wake up for another 10 minutes. Steam them in a hot pot on cold water. Steam them for another 25 minutes. After steaming, turn off the heat and simmer for 3 minutes. Then take them out and put them on a plate while they are hot to avoid sticking to the steaming cloth
23. It's delicious and chewy, the only thing I don't think is that layer by layer. I'll study this next time
