Santa Buns
1.
Yeast and sugar are dissolved in warm water, and flour and milk powder are poured into the bowl.
2.
Pour in the yeast water and knead it into a smooth dough.
3.
Take 7 grams of white dough and add edible bamboo charcoal powder to make black dough, and 25 grams of white dough into red yeast rice powder to make red dough.
4.
Divide the white dough into 5 small doughs of 35 grams, make the head, round, and use the remaining white dough as other parts for use. All the dough should be covered with plastic wrap or towel to prevent it from drying out when not in operation.
5.
Slightly squeeze the white dough and make it smaller on the top and wider on the bottom, as shown in the figure.
6.
Divide the red dough into 5 pieces of 4 g, roll them into an oval shape, and make the nose with the remaining red dough.
7.
Wrap the rolled red dough around the top of the head, shape it into a hat shape, pull out a little spare white dough, and place it on the tip of the hat.
8.
In the spare white dough, pull out 2 grams of dough and knead it into a strip.
9.
Glue it to the edge of the red hat and use scissors to cut out rows of small sharp corners.
10.
Roll out the spare white dough, press out 3 circles with a mold, and divide each into two.
11.
Cut out the beard with scissors, pull each one a little longer, twist it, and stick it to the chin. If the stick is not strong, you can use some clean water.
12.
Pull out a little bit of black dough, squeeze it, and stick out the eyes. The white dough dots the whites of the eyes, and the red dough makes a little bit of the nose, because this part is very small and can be glued with the help of toothpicks.
13.
Put the finished Santa's buns in a steamer and let them wake up in a warm place. You can see that the embryos of the buns are obviously larger.
14.
Steam in a pot on boiling water, and steam for 13-15 minutes after the water is boiled. When the time is up, turn off the heat and continue to simmer for 3-5 minutes before removing the lid.
