Ingredients
Steps
-
Let's make the dough first. Take 20 grams of whole egg liquid, 125 grams of water, 2 grams of salt, 50 grams of white sugar, 250 grams of high-gluten flour, 10 grams of milk powder, and 4 grams of high-sugar-tolerant yeast. Add them all to the bread machine and knead until a rough film forms.
-
Add 20 grams of unsalted butter softened at room temperature and continue kneading until a glove film forms.
-
While the dough is being kneaded, mix 3 grams of matcha powder with 10 grams of boiling water into a paste and set aside.
-
After kneading out the glove film, take half of the bread.
-
Wrap in plastic wrap and ferment at room temperature until doubled in size.
-
Add the prepared matcha paste to the other half of the dough, continue to put it into the bread machine, mix evenly, and ferment until it doubles in size.
-
Take out the fermented dough and dip your finger in flour and poke it in if it doesn't shrink back, it means it's fermented.
-
After the 2 pieces of dough are deflated, divide them evenly into 3 pieces. After they are all rounded, cover them with plastic wrap and let them rest for 15 minutes.
-
After resting, take a piece of dough, deflate it with a rolling pin, and roll it into the shape of beef tongue.
-
Fold the two sides in half towards the middle.
-
Then roll it out thinly with a rolling pin.
-
Put strips of bean paste to seal.
-
Remember to seal it tightly.
-
Put it into the baking pan, flatten it slightly, put it in the oven and turn on the fermentation function. The fermentation temperature is 35°C and the humidity is about 70%. Let it ferment slowly until it doubles in size. If the weather is cold, you can put a bowl of hot water in the oven to help fermentation.
-
Now make the line sauce that is squeezed onto the surface of the bread. Take 20 grams of unsalted butter, 20 grams of corn oil, and 40 grams of water. Add to the pot and cook over high heat until it boils. After boiling, remove from the heat.
-
Add 20 grams of low-gluten flour and mix quickly with a spatula.
-
Test the temperature with your hands. When it is not too hot, add 30 grams of whole egg liquid and stir quickly evenly.
-
Put into piping bag and set aside.
-
Take out the fermented dough, evenly spread the prepared line sauce, and put it in the oven.
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C in advance and bake the bread for 12-15 minutes.
