    . Water-adjusted dough preparation: Add appropriate amount of water to soft sugar, caramel, tofu, and refined salt and stir fully, then add wheat flour and sesame kernels and continue to stir to form a water-adjusted dough. Let stand for a while to keep the dough relaxed. Add appropriate water when preparing the dough, and weave the dough harder to press the leather surface.

    . Shaping: Divide the dough into several pieces and let stand for a while (about 5 minutes). It can be formed manually or mechanically. Hand forming: Sprinkle some powder on the chopping board, and use a rolling pin (special wooden stick) to flatten the dough first. Then roll it thin (about 1 mm thick) and fold it neatly horizontally; the folding width is within 8 cm, cut it straight from left to right in the middle of about 4 cm, and then cut it into sections, each section is within 3 cm wide. Make a knife hole at each folding joint (that is, cut two gaps in the middle of the dough sheet), sieve off the powder and leave it to be fried. Mechanical forming: Use a skin rolling machine (leather car) to compress and form.

    Frying: Heat the oil temperature of the oil pan to about 175 ° C, and first sieve the green body to clean the powder to prevent the powder from being coking by high oil temperature and contaminating the oil quality and affecting the color of the product. Then pour the green body into the fence and slowly place it into the oil pan; when it floats to the oil surface, quickly use the fence to stir the green body and keep turning over. When it turns golden yellow, immediately remove the oil pan.
