Two-color flowering steamed buns
Overview
My family's breakfast has been mainly pasta for a long time. Generally, I can eat it for several days after making it once. This time I tried to use purple potato freeze-dried powder and ponkan radish juice to make steamed buns. The natural pigments are steamed at high temperature. Although it will fade a little, I think the color of the finished product is quite attractive, soft and delicious. You might as well give it a try. Purple sweet potato freeze-dried powder was bought at TB. If you don’t have children’s shoes at home, you can directly use steamed purple sweet potato to make it, and the color will be more beautiful. This time I used 55 grams of fruit and vegetable juice, but I don’t have a scale for the exact amount of purple sweet potato puree. The all-purpose flour I use is Kite brand natural refined flour.
