  • Two-color steamed buns Make Tips

    1. The mashed potatoes must be handled very delicately, otherwise the steamed buns will be unevenly colored.

    2. Add more mashed potatoes if you like dark purple, and add less mashed potatoes if you like light purple.

    3. If you like sweet taste, you can add some white sugar to the flour when kneading, or you can replace warm water with warm milk. The steamed buns made in this way will have a milky flavor. However, it should be noted that white sugar cannot be directly in contact with yeast, otherwise it will affect the activity of yeast.

    4. The thinner the dough sheet is rolled, the more patterns there will be in the steamed buns made, and vice versa.

    5. Make sure to roll the dough sheet tightly when rolling up, so that the steamed buns will not be layered when they are steamed out. If the two dough sheets don't fit well, put a layer of water in the middle.

    6. Secondary fermentation is also very important, otherwise the steamed buns will not be soft. Turn off the heat and simmer for five minutes before taking out the pan. The steamed buns will be smoother!
