This method saves time, and the buns made are especially soft. I have some tips for making buns, just follow the recipe, and the buns you make will definitely be white and plump, even better than bread.
Making buns requires simple ingredients – flour, water, and yeast powder. The key technique is kneading the dough; there's nothing complicated about it. This little mouse bun can be changed into other shapes, or filled with stuffing, and can also be made into buns. If you like it, be sure to collect it and try it yourself.
Little Mouse Buns
Ingredients: 150g flour, 75g warm water, 1.5g yeast powder, 0.5g no-aluminum baking powder, a pinch of sugar, about 5g vegetable oil
Steps:
1, First, melt the yeast powder in warm water. The water temperature must not be too hot, just slightly warm. After melting, let it stand for two minutes to fully activate the yeast's activity.
2, Add oil, a pinch of sugar to promote fermentation, a small amount of baking powder, flour, and mix well.
3, Then knead into a ball with your hands. The dough is very rough at the beginning, don't worry, keep kneading.
4, About ten minutes later, the dough will become very smooth. Use a knife to cut the dough, and you can see the cross-section is very delicate, without large holes. This kind of dough can make beautiful buns. Divide the dough into two parts, one for the body of the little mouse, and the other for the ears and tail of the little mouse.
5, Divide the large dough into four equal parts, first knead into circles, then roll into a long ellipse, and a small dough is kneaded into a small strip to make the tail. Use a small cutter to make the ears.
6, As shown in the picture, attach the tail and ears to the corresponding positions, use black sesame to stick out the eyes, use scissors to cut out the whiskers and mouth.
7, The finished little mouse should be proofed in a warm place until its volume is about twice its original size, then steam it for eight minutes.
Tips:
No-aluminum baking powder is a healthy additive that will not have any adverse effects on the body. Everyone can rest assured to eat it, if you don't feel comfortable, you can also omit it. The puffiness of the bun will be slightly reduced, some bakeries use harmful baking powder, which contains aluminum, which is harmful to the body, and cannot be eaten.
The flour for making buns can use medium-strength flour, which has the highest success rate, don't deliberately choose high-gluten flour or cake flour.
