Tips:
Tips for food:
1. After kneading the dough, let it stand for about 1 hour to shape it so that the fried dough sticks will be fluffy.
2. Ordinary flour can be used if there is no dough stick powder, and ordinary flour needs to be fermented with yeast. After the fermentation is completed, add a little baking powder and baking soda to adjust the bulkiness of the dough. For the specific amount, please refer to the dough stick recipe on the Internet.
3. You tiao embryos should be of moderate thickness. Too thick and hard to cook will cause hard cores. If they are too thin, they will not look like fried dough sticks.
4. After the deep-fried dough sticks are in the pot, use medium heat during frying, and turn them over frequently. Finally, turn to high heat when they are out of the pot. The purpose is to force out the moisture and remaining oil inside the deep-fried dough sticks, so that they will be dry and not greasy when they are eaten.
