Buckwheat lotus leaf clip

Overview

When people reach middle age, their metabolic rate begins to slow down. They should eat less high-sweetness and low-nutrition foods, such as desserts, salads, animal fats and candies. It is better to eat a variety of dried fruits, whole grains, fresh fruits, etc. Buckwheat tastes very rough when eaten alone. It is best to eat it with flour. It not only has the nutrition of whole grains, but also has a much softer texture. My lotus leaf cakes are smooth and even when you zoom in. Novices should not change the recipe easily. Follow my steps step by step, and you can make perfect works.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Mix the yeast powder with 20 grams of warm water to activate the yeast. The water temperature should not be too high and should not be hot to the touch.

   

2. 2 Sieve the buckwheat flour, because what I bought is freshly ground coarse buckwheat flour, the process is simple, there will be some larger particles mixed in, which need to be sifted out.

   

3. 3 Add 300 grams of flour, white sugar, and yeast water. These few grams of sugar will not be sweet, but are just to help fermentation. The fermentation speed and quality of the dough will be much better with the addition of white sugar

   

4. 4 Knead into a smooth and even dough. In this step, use the heel of your hand to knead it in place. If you knead it unevenly, the finished product will not be too smooth

   

5. 5 Cover with plastic wrap and ferment in a warm place until doubled in size. When opened, a uniform honeycomb structure can be seen

   

6. 6 Deflate the air and knead it into a smooth dough again. If the dough was kneaded well, it will not stick to your hands during the whole process. If it sticks, dip it in a little dry flour

   

7. 7 Prepare a small brush and a small amount of oil

   

8. 8 Divide into small portions of the same size, roll into balls and flatten

   

9. 9 Use a rolling pin to flatten the dough, and cover the rest of the dough with a clean cloth to prevent the surface from drying out

   

10. 10 Brush a layer of oil on the surface

    

11. 11 Fold it in half and poke a small hole with a toothpick, but don’t pierce it through

    

12. 12 Put it into the steamer and let it rise for about 20 minutes. If the weather is cold, you can warm the water, turn off the heat, cover it and use the residual heat of the water vapor to ferment

    

13. 13 Turn on the heat and steam for 8 minutes after the water boils. Don’t rush to open the lid after steaming. Let it simmer for a minute and wait until the temperature difference between the inside and outside is not too big before opening it
