Carrots are one of the vegetables that many children don't like to eat because they don't like its taste. Today, I used carrot puree and noodles to make carrot steamed buns, but they didn’t taste like carrots at all, because a lot of milk powder was added to enhance the flavor.
I have tried to make noodles with carrot juice, but the effect is not good and the color turns to yellow. So I recommend that you use carrot puree for mixing noodles, it is the closest color. Don't add color for the sake of good color, natural coloring is always the best to eat.
The amount of carrot puree is only approximate. It depends on the water absorption of the flour. Don't add too much carrot puree at once, otherwise you will have to add a lot of flour to knead the dough. If you add too much flour, the amount of yeast and the amount of sugar It's wrong again, so add carrot puree in small amounts. Pay attention to the shape, the dough must be a little longer, not too short, otherwise it will become a white radish shape. This is a summary of my experience, I hope you can succeed once you do it.

Ingredients

Pictograph Carrot Buns

1. Carrots are peeled and thinly sliced, steamed in water for about 10 minutes, and steamed.

2. Use an ACA food processor to mix the steamed carrots and 80 grams of water into carrot puree. Pour out about 9 grams of carrot juice, warm it up, add 1.5 grams of yeast, and stir to dissolve.

3. Pour flour, milk powder and sugar into the bowl.

4. Pour in the yeast water and the right amount of carrot puree. The carrot puree here does not need to add so much, remember! I will use the remaining carrot puree for other purposes. You can also beaten a little less carrots.

5. Make it into a harder dough, and you can see a little bit of carrot shreds. Then make the green dough, dissolve the yeast in water, and combine all the green dough materials into a dough.

6. Divide into small doughs of 40-45 grams each, and knead the dough a little longer, with one side being large and the other being small, to form a carrot shape.

7. Mix the cocoa powder with a little bit of water, dip a toothpick in the cocoa liquid, and draw a few lines on the carrot.

8. Roll the green dough into thin noodles, and use a bake cutter to cut out a number of thin noodles.

9. A set of 5-6 pieces.

10. Insert it on the top with a toothpick, and dip it with cocoa liquor.

11. Put it in a steamer and let it rise in a warm place for 25-30 minutes. After the water in the pot is boiled, put on the steamer and turn to medium heat to steam for about 13 minutes. Turn off the heat and simmer for 3-5 minutes before opening the lid.
