Introduction: Do the green dough to keep in mind the "5 points", do the green dough does not change color, each soft glutinous does not collapse!
"There are eight winds at times, and the calendar refers to the Qingming wind alone, which is the March Festival. This wind belongs to Sunda also. All things are in harmony, and at this time, all things are clear with purity." Qingming is one of the ancient traditional festivals in China, and in the eyes of Chinese, it is a festival to mourn and remember the ancestors. The drizzle of April wets everything, we miss our ancestors, but also cherish the present, qingming festival has a lot of customs, and qingming festival eating green dough is one of the customs.
Why should we eat green dough during the Qingming Festival? The Qingming Dynasty to eat qingtuan dates back to the Zhou Dynasty, according to the "Zhou Li" recorded that "in the middle of the spring with the wooden duo fire forbidden in the middle of the country", so the people extinguished the cooking, "cold food festival three days". On the third day of the Cold Food Festival, that is, one or two days before the Weiming Dynasty, it is also designated as the "Cold Day Festival". Therefore, the Qingming Festival is also called the "Cold Food Festival", it is not allowed to make a fire, and people must prepare pastries in advance to fill their hunger, which is what we often call the green dough.
Qingming Festival eating Qingtuan also has a good meaning, this is because the Qingtuan, like its name, means reunion and happiness, but also to commemorate the ancestors, express the feelings of remembrance, in addition, the Qingtuan is also a very nutritious food, containing vitamins, dietary fiber, starch and other nutrients.
Many people will say that making green dough is simple, that is, and bread filling, in fact, if a delicacy wants to be delicious, it is far from being as simple as filling with bread, and each process needs to be carefully considered, "details determine success or failure" is a good embodiment here. Today, I will share the method of doing the youth league, and the green group should keep in mind the "5 points", and the green balls made of green do not change color, and the soft sticky ones do not collapse!
Point 1: Wormwood
Fresh wormwood to pick the young buds, the old leaves and hard poles do not want, generally need about 100 grams, too much to make the green dough color is not good, picked wormwood first to use light salt water to soak a bubble, and then hot water blanching water, but do not directly blanch water, water to add a little edible alkali, add edible alkali Purpose can not only effectively remove the bitter taste of wormwood, but also make the green dough turquoise unchanged color, and then fish out the squeezed water into the blender, add 100 ml of water to beat into wormwood mud, You can't move without adding water!
Point 2: Filling
There are many kinds of fillings, you can prepare egg yolks, sesame seeds, bean paste, of course, you can also prepare meat filling, we are preparing bean paste filling today, and the bean paste made by yourself will be better. Rub the bean paste into balls of equal size, place on a plate, and cover with plastic wrap to avoid drying out.
Point 3: And noodles
If the green dough wants to be soft and sticky, this and the noodles are crucial, first prepare 200 grams of glutinous rice flour, this glutinous rice flour is best ground with water, so that the taste will be better, add 30 grams of white sugar, and then add wormwood mud and noodles in small quantities and many times until kneaded into a smooth dough; another 60 grams of powder, that is, wheat starch, the purpose of adding flour is to increase the taste, and the powder can make the green dough bright, there is a crystal clear feeling, the powder and noodles must be boiled with 100 degrees of boiling water, also kneaded into a dough. Then mix the two, continue to knead until fully fused, pour a little cooking oil, one is to lock in the water, the second is to increase its ductility, the third is not sticky, continue to knead completely fused.
Point 4: Do youth leagues
And good noodles do not need to wake up the noodles directly wrapped on it, take a piece of noodles first round and then use your fingers to press out the right size of the groove, and then add the prepared filling, use the tiger mouth to push gradually close the mouth, and finally knead the circle, the green dough made with this method is perfect.
Point 5: Steamed green dough
Some people like to steam it out and brush the cooked oil, the purpose is to keep the color turquoise, but I think it would be better to brush a layer of oil before steaming, and then steam for 12 to 15 minutes after boiling the water on high heat.
"During the Qingming Dynasty, the rain is pouring, and every household is green, crystal clear emerald green, sweet and delicious." The steamed green dough is soft and hard, the filling is delicate and sweet, and the very rich wormwood aroma is really the taste of spring! When making green dough, directly boiling water is wrong, add more flavor, that is, edible alkali, steamed green dough does not change color, not bitter or astringent, soft glutinous does not collapse!
