Steps for Cotton soft steamed bun skin

1
Dry yeast, baking powder. Wheat flour, preferably fresh. Storage for too long affects the taste, and it will not ferment without 12 hours2
Then start to mix the dough. First prepare a bowl of hot water and add 2 tablespoons of white sugar (adding white sugar can shorten the fermentation time).3
Stir until the sugar is completely melted. If the water is too cold to melt, heat it up.4
After the sugar melts completely, wait for the boiling water to cool. We can test with our hands, feel warm, you can pour dry yeast (here must say, can not use boiling water, must be warm). The amount of yeast powder is probably enough to see the yeast powder floating on the surface of the water. Or two!5
Then stir and beat the yeast powder into the bottom of the water. Let it stand and see grains of yeast powder floating concentrated on the water. We can add wheat flour and baking powder. If you want baking powder, just 2 spoonfuls will do!

This is the dough I made. Fermentation time is 30-40 minutes. If it is urgent, you can also preheat it in the microwave for a few minutes. Raise the temperature inside the microwave and put the dough in it to ferment! This can shorten the fermentation time. How can you know if it is going well? You can turn the bottom of the dough out and see the honeycomb-like gaps to indicate that it is going well. Or more directly, it is much larger than before. Just do it!

I made onions and meat. Because dad likes to eat this taste ~! Although it looks uglier. But it does not affect the taste!Cotton soft steamed bun skin Make Tips
One trick I teach you when mixing meat filling is to keep the meat filling dry. And there is still soup flowing out! That is, after the seasoning is mixed, stir it and then add it little by little. Add water and stir it clockwise and keep stirring, making sure to stir in the same direction. Add and stir! This way the meat paste will be stirred until it becomes thick. That's fine.
