How to Make Doughnuts and Exclusive Recipe

A New Fried Dough RecipeThis is made with flour, baking powder, cornstarch, eggs, etc., and the finished product has the characteristics of golden color, crispy outside and soft inside, fluffy and expanded, and flexible. Especially in the ingredients, a certain amount of eggs are added, which also improves the nutritional value compared to ordinary fried dough. Because this fried dough does not add alum in the making, it will not decompose and release aluminum that is harmful to the human body. However, its crispness is slightly inferior to ordinary fried dough.

Ingredients:Top-grade high-gluten flour 1500g baking powder 15g cornstarch 7.5g salt 30g eggs 4 pieces vegetable oil 2500g

Method:
1. Sift the flour and mix with baking powder. Pour about 1000g of water into the dough mixer, add eggs, salt, cornstarch and 50g vegetable oil, start the machine and adjust to low speed to stir until the water becomes turbid and has a small bubble, then add the flour mixed with baking powder, wait until the flour and water are mixed into a dough, and then switch to medium speed to stir until the dough is smooth and soft.

2. Use your hands to brush a little vegetable oil, take out a dough block from the dough mixer and put it on a board brushed with oil, then roll it into a rectangular block, then beat it with fists, wait until the sheet becomes larger, then fold it into 2-3 layers to beat again, according to the law repeatedly three times, then stack the beaten dough block neatly and put it into a stainless steel pan, cover it with a damp towel and let it stand for about half an hour before using.

3. On the other end of the board, sprinkle with flour, use a dough knife to take a small dough block and put it on the board, use your hands to pull it out into a long strip, then use a rolling pin to roll it into an 8cm wide and 1cm thick long strip. Then use a knife to cut it into 2.5cm wide strips.

4. Pour vegetable oil into the pot and heat to 70% before pouring in a strip of dough, use a small brush to brush a little water on the non-knife edge of the dough strip, then overlap (the knife edge is on both sides), use a wooden stick to press the middle of the strip with a stick, so that the two strips are sticky, then hold the strip with your hands, gently pull it out, the right hand twists the strip two turns, then pull it into the oil pot (first put the middle of the strip into the oil pot, then put the two ends into the oil pot), while frying, use chopsticks to flip it, fry until the strip is crisp and full, the color is golden and out of the pot to drain the oil, cut into short pieces, put it in a plate and serve.

Key Making Points:
1. When making dough, you must first thoroughly mix vegetable starch, fine salt, eggs, vegetable oil and water, and then add flour, otherwise it will cause uneven crispness and uneven taste. When making dough, stir from low speed to medium speed, so that it is easier for gluten to form.

2. When beating the dough, do not overlap too much, otherwise the gluten will be too strong. Do not use too much force, otherwise the gluten will break. When making the dough block, it is necessary to stand and proof for half an hour before cutting into strips, otherwise the fried dough will be dead and not crispy. Also, when stacking the dough blocks, if there are bubbles, use a toothpick to remove them, otherwise the outside of the fried dough will not be smooth.

3. After cutting the strip, brush a little water and overlap and press, to avoid cracking or breaking the dough strip when frying, when pulling the dough strip with your hands, use light force, if the force is too strong, the dough strip will crack or break the gluten.

4. When frying, the oil temperature should be 67% (about 180℃). If the oil temperature is too low, the oil will quickly penetrate into the dough strip, which not only makes the middle of the fried dough contain a lot of oil, but also reduces its expansion. If the oil temperature is too high, it will easily fry the fried dough to burn and darken. During the frying process, you must use chopsticks to flip it, so that it heats evenly, makes the fried dough expand, fluffy and uniform color.
