Step 1: First, prepare a pot of flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder, and mix them evenly, then pour in cooking oil and mix them evenly, and then pour in a proper amount of water. Kneading dough is very important. You have to fold the dough, then knead the dough with your fist, fold the dough at the edge in the middle and continue kneading (this step is softer than making steamed bread).
Step 2: Knead the dough for about three minutes for the first time, cover it and stir it for about 15 minutes, then continue to do it for two or three minutes in the same way, and then stir it for about 15 minutes, and then continue to do it for the third time, then apply a layer of cooking oil on the surface of the dough and put it in the refrigerator for more than 5 hours.
Step 3: get up early the next day, take it out for half an hour at room temperature, and then shape the dough after it is warm. Remember that you can't knead the dough in this step. Then push the dough away with the palm of your hand and flatten it, and then cut it into two halves with the right width.
Step 4: Roll it to a thickness of about 0.5 cm with a rolling pin, cut it into wide strips, and let it stand for about 10 minute. Then dip chopsticks in water every other place.
Step 5: Then fold the two pieces with water and without water and gently press them with chopsticks. If you see that two pieces are not layered, sprinkle some dry flour on the dough, otherwise the two pieces will affect the expansion of the fried dough sticks, and you can't sprinkle too much. It's easy to separate if you sprinkle too many pieces. Be sure to fold it in two pieces, and a single fried dough stick will not swell easily.
Step 6, heat the oil slightly, cut a little slice and throw it into the oil pan, which can expand rapidly, proving that the oil temperature is ok. Then pinch the two ends tightly, gently squeeze them, put them into the oil pan, stir them quickly with chopsticks, fry them until golden brown, and take out and drain the oil. The golden crispy fried dough sticks are ready. Cut it open and see, each one has a big hole, which is also delicious!
Overview of fritters
Through the above steps, I believe many people have a deeper understanding of the practice of fried dough sticks. In fact, many people can understand the overall practice of fried fritters, but most people have such a question, that is, why do fritters have to be stacked together? I didn't understand it at first, but later I learned through experiments that it is easier for two pieces to be fluffy, fluffy and more delicious when superimposed together.
