Several days ago, some people asked me how to fry oil sticks at home. Seeing this question, I remembered that recently my friends in WeChat and my neighbors on the left and right have been frying oil sticks, making cold skin, frying sugar cakes, and other snacks. Even my wife was eager to try frying oil sticks.Actually, the method of frying oil sticks is the same whether it's done at home or in a hotel kitchen. Just that the tools in the kitchen are a little more complete, and the hardware facilities are better. However, I think the oil sticks made at home taste better than those in hotels, and the aroma can't be stopped by swallowing from a distance.

So, at this time, it is certain that many people are curious, since frying oil sticks is so delicious, how should it be done at home? In fact, the method of frying oil sticks is not complicated, otherwise it would not be possible for everyone to eagerly try it. Even many housewives are better at making dough, and this frying of oil sticks requires a high level of dough making, that is, it must be well-fermented.

Below, let's share the specific steps and details of making fried oil sticks. I will express it in the simplest and easiest language so that everyone can understand and understand, everyone welcome to look at it together.

Ingredients

Main ingredients: one pound of low-gluten flour

Accessories: one egg, four grams of yeast powder, two hundred grams of milk, five grams of salt

Steps for frying oil sticks

Step 1,First, prepare a clean and dry dough bowl, pour milk and eggs into the flour (milk can be poured in batches, which can better control the water absorption of the flour), while stirring constantly (some flour absorbs a lot of water)

Step 2,Then, pour yeast powder into warm water and stir until dissolved (warm water makes it easier to activate the yeast, and the taste of oil sticks made with edible yeast is better), and then pour the yeast water into the bowl, while stirring (at this time, the flour has gradually become a cotton ball)

Step 3,Next, use your hands to knead the dough into a smooth dough (this step needs to be kneaded for a while, so that the dough made is smoother), after the dough is well-made, knead it into a dough and apply a layer of edible oil to the surface (putting edible oil will make the dough ferment better), cover it with a cloth and put it in a warm place to ferment

Step 4,Ferment until the dough is twice as big and has a dense honeycomb-like appearance, at this time, when you poke your finger into it, it will not be soft, this means that it has fermented well, then on the cutting board, apply oil, take out the fermented dough, directly pull it out, slightly roll it and cut it into wide strips, stack two wide strips together, to make oil stick embryo

Step 5,The final step is to open the oil pot (a little more oil, so that the oil sticks made later will have a better texture), heat the oil to 60% hot and then put the oil sticks into the oil, about three seconds later the oil sticks will slowly expand, at this time use chopsticks to keep stirring, fry until golden brown, take it out to eat, very fluffy and delicious

Summary of fried oil sticks

Through the above steps, I believe that many people have a deeper understanding of how to fry oil sticks. In fact, the most important thing in the process of frying oil sticks is to pay attention to the details, especially in the fermentation and opening of the oil pot, you must be very careful. First, the fermentation problem, most people fail because they are not successful in fermentation, not because the fermentation powder is not enough, but because it fermented too much, which made it difficult to expand when cooking, and secondly, the opening of the oil pot, this step is very important for controlling the oil temperature, if you control it incorrectly, the oil sticks will be burnt or mushy and without texture
