Steps
-
Mix the ingredients for water and oil dough (100 grams of all-purpose flour, 15 grams of corn oil, 5 grams of fine sugar, 50 grams of water), knead into a smooth dough, and rest for 30 minutes.
-
Make puff pastry. After the butter is softened, add low-gluten flour and knead.
-
Put the kneaded pastry ingredients into a plastic bag, roll it into a rectangle, and put it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before continuing.
-
Sprinkle some high-gluten flour on the kneading mat to prevent sticking, roll out the loosened dough to twice the area of the pastry, and place the pastry in the middle.
-
The water-oil skin completely wraps the puff pastry and seals tightly. Fold inward one-third from both ends.
-
Roll it out again, then fold it in again. Finally roll it into a regular rectangular piece of dough.
-
Put the chestnut stuffing into a plastic bag and cut into thin slices.
-
Divide the filling into two portions and place on half of the rectangular dough sheet, as shown in the picture.
-
Fold the dough sheet in half and pinch the edge. Cut into thin strips of about 1 cm.
-
Hold one end of the noodles with your left hand, twist the other end a few times with your right hand, and place it in the baking pan.
-
Brush the surface with a layer of egg wash and sprinkle with a little black sesame seeds.
-
Preheat the oven to 190 degrees for 5 minutes, put it in the middle layer, bake for 20 minutes until the surface is light yellow, and take it out of the oven.
