When it's cold, the pastry chef will teach you a trick, and it will be too easy to make a pot in 20 minutes. Recently, the temperature is getting lower and lower, and many people want to make a steamed bun or bread at home, sometimes they have to send noodles for 4-5 hours, and even sometimes after a day, the dough has not changed a little, which causes many people to lose confidence in making steamed bread. As an experienced pastry chef, I am familiar with the tricks of making noodles in each season, as long as someone asks me how to make noodles quickly, I will share this trick with him, many people after practice, they all say that this method is too convenient, 20 minutes to fill the basin of noodles, and then Chef Hu will share this trick with everyone.
[Ingredients preparation]: 500 grams of all-purpose flour, 20 grams of sugar, 2 grams of baking soda, 5 grams of yeast, 245ml of 35 degrees warm water, 2 grams of salt, appropriate amount of plastic wrap.
【Quick Hair Method】:
Step 1: Mix all the sugar, yeast and warm water together, then stir in one direction for 1 minute, then let the water stand for 5 minutes and set aside.
Step 2: After 10 minutes, put the fermented water, baking soda, and salt into the flour, then stir it into cotton wool, then knead the cotton wool flour into a dough, and finally knead the dough in the basin repeatedly until the basin, hand, and face are kneaded (this process takes about 15 minutes).
Step 3: Prepare a steamer, put an appropriate amount of water in it, then boil the water until it is rising, then put the basin filled with dough into the steamer, then cover the pot, wait patiently for 20 minutes, and the noodles will be full.
[The principle of steaming dough]: Because when the yeast lives at a temperature of 35-42 degrees Celsius, the activity is the highest, and the carbon dioxide produced is also the highest, and we put the dough into the steamer, the temperature inside can be kept at 40 degrees, this temperature is most suitable for yeast reproduction, so that the dough will fill the pot for 20 minutes. The water in the steamer must not boil, as soon as bubbles start to form at the bottom of the steamer, you can turn off the heat and put the dough in.
【3 Tips for Dough】:
1. If you want to make the dough fluffy, we must knead it very smooth, generally after the dough is kneaded, we will slowly tear the dough, if the dough can be torn into a very thin dough cake (thickness less than 0.1 cm), it means that the dough is kneaded, if it is greater than 0.1 cm, you need to continue to knead.
2. In order to make the dough ferment quickly, we need to mix the white sugar, yeast and warm water together in advance, because the yeast is put into the sugar water first, which can stimulate the activity of the yeast, and also make the yeast multiply quickly, thereby speeding up the dough fermentation time.
In autumn and winter, due to the low temperature and dry weather, 1 kg of flour to 245ml of water is the most reasonable at this time.
3. When making noodles, be sure to add a little baking soda, because baking soda is an alkaline substance, and it neutralizes the acidic substances in the noodles, so as to make the noodles more fragrant.
The pastry chef will teach you a trick, and the university will use steam to make the dough to ensure that it will be full in 20 minutes, which is really convenient.
