Poetic Heart: 1: I use 80 grams of boiled water, but different flours have different water absorption levels, so it is best not to use too much water when soaking the yeast. If it is not enough after stirring, add warm boiled water. 2: The amount of sugar depends on your preferences. But it is not recommended to eat too sweetly. 3: When gathering the "petals" at the end, use your index finger to dip in a little water and gently wipe the edges of the petals. This way, during the secondary fermentation, the "petals" will stick together and will not spread after steaming. 4: Since the filling is cooked, the steaming time does not need to be too long. 5: Add a little glutinous rice to make the filling more sticky, but you can not add it.
