Because steamed bread tastes tight, not as soft as bread, it will be easier to make, so it doesn't need to be fermented so many times, just once or twice. If bread is made softer, it will ferment more times. The first fermentation is called basic fermentation to ensure complete fermentation. The second fermentation is called relaxation, in order to ensure the uniformity of plastic surgery. The third fermentation is the last fermentation.
Fermentation process:
The first fermentation is called basic fermentation to ensure complete fermentation.
The second room temperature 15 minutes is called relaxation, in order to ensure the uniformity of plastic surgery.
The third time is the final fermentation.
Generally, the basic fermentation needs to be fermented to twice the size, and then continue to ferment to about twice the size after setting. According to the current room temperature, it will take about 1-2 hours. After the first fermentation, it must not be shaped and baked, because it has been exhausted during the shaping process, and the effect is probably similar to that of scones.
After molding, secondary fermentation should not be carried out, because other auxiliary materials may be added in the later molding, which will affect the fermentation, and the fermentation is uneven at this time, and the pores in the dough are large and small.
