Steps

  1. To make the dough first, put 250 grams of ordinary flour into a basin, add 3 grams of yeast and mix evenly. Add about 150 grams of warm water in batches and spread, then pour in 10 grams of cooking oil, knead the smooth and soft dough, cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size. (The water absorption of flour is different, the amount of warm water is about 140-150 grams).

  3. Let the pastry dry until it is not hot to your hands, then pour it onto the chopping board and knead it evenly with the heels of your palms. Knead it into a uniform and delicate ball and put it into a fresh-keeping bag for later use.

  4. After making the pastry, we prepare the filling. Today’s filling is sesame, walnut and white sugar filling, 20 grams of sesame seeds, 80 grams of cooked walnut kernels, and 50 grams of white sugar. (You can put your favorite fillings, bean paste filling, sugar filling, peanut filling, etc.).

  6. Put the crushed walnut kernels, black and white sesame seeds (cooked), and white sugar into a bowl and mix evenly, then pour in 10 grams of cooked oil (the mixed filling is relatively loose at this time, pour a little cooked oil and mix well to make the filling a little more cohesive, making it easier to encapsulate the filling).

  7. The mixed filling is in this state (as shown in the picture). Take a handful of the filling and it will form into a ball with force, but it will fall apart if you push it lightly.
