How to make potato meat buns (the whole process of making buns)

• 

  1.Add water:
  First estimate the approximate amount of water and Angel yeast powder needed The dosage, here is 1 kilogram of flour mixed with 5g of yeast powder and half a bowl of warm water.
  a.Before adding the yeast powder, put half a spoon of white sugar and a little bit of edible salt in the bowl (it is said that this can make the dough rise better, and the experimental results are indeed true)
  b.Add an appropriate amount of 30 degrees Pour warm water around into the bowl.What is the concept of 30 degrees? It means that it feels warm when you put your hand inside it in the winter.It’s good if you can feel a little bit of temperature.In the summer, it just needs to be neither cold nor hot.
  c.Add 5g of yeast powder and stir to melt.After the yeast powder melts, it will feel like rice soup

  2. Kneading 1:
  Kneading technique: Hold the edge of the bowl with one hand and pour the yeast water you just mixed into it, use chopsticks with the other hand Stir and disperse in one direction until it forms small pieces of cotton wool

• 

  3.Kneading dough 2:
  This way you can use your hands.When kneading with your hands, try to knead in one direction until all the flour balls on the edge of the basin are stuck (this is easy to do) p>

• 

  4.Proofing:
  Press the mixed dough tightly Seal the bottom of the basin with plastic wrap or a lid and let it sit for about half an hour.This is the case in summer.In winter, you can put it in hot water of about 25 degrees and let it rest.
  The final result is a honeycomb shape (I am If you use the inner pot of the rice cooker, it will only cook a little bit.After it is cooked, the whole rice cooker will be full, so it is best to use a deep pot)

  5. Divide into balls:
  a.Repeat step 3 of the risen dough and knead it into a ball (here you need to put some dry flour while doing it)
  b.Divide these balls into strips and put them on the cutting board and cut them into similar sizes
  This way the buns will not be too different (note that it is best to prepare some dry flour on top before placing them on the cutting board) To prevent the divided dough from sticking to the cutting board, you also need to apply a little vegetable oil on the knife)

  6. Stuffing:
  I make potato and meat stuffing, which is almost the same as home cooking.You can refer to my usual cooking method.Today I will mainly talk about how to make steamed buns
  Usually we don’t have a rolling pin at home, so we roll the divided dough into a round shape with our bare hands and flatten it with our palms.When pressing, try to make the periphery thin and the middle thick.Then press it.Spread the bun skin on your hands and put the fillings

  7.Forming: Baos are usually folded.Regarding this issue, many people wonder how to fold it to make it look good.I don’t think it’s easy to describe, so I can just say that I pick up the bun with one hand and fold it like a fan when I was a child.But this time, I need to fold it while folding it.You will understand after you try it a few times

• 

  8.Steamed buns:Before steaming the buns, apply a little oil on the steamer or steamer to prevent the buns from sticking to it after steaming.Do not boil cold water and then steam for 30 minutes.Do not open the lid during the steaming process!
  After 30 minutes, turn off the heat and the buns will be cooked.But don’t rush yet.Don’t open the lid immediately, otherwise the buns will become wrinkled and unsightly when exposed to the cold air.It only takes a few minutes to take them out.This will make them beautiful.
