Pineapple bread

Pineapple buns actually have no pineapple ingredients, and there is no stuffing in the middle of the bread. It is said that pineapple buns were made by adding sugar and other sweet fillings to the buns because Hong Kong people were dissatisfied with the original buns in the early years and thought they were not delicious enough. The crispy skin on the outer surface of pineapple bag is generally baked with sugar, eggs, flour and lard. It is the soul of pineapple bag, which adds flavor to ordinary bread and is better when it is hot. Pastry should be crisp and sweet, while packaging should be soft and delicious. The appearance is similar to that of Japanese honeydew melon bag (en:Melonpan) and Hong Kong Mexican bag.

Pineapple buns are one of the most common breads in Hong Kong. Almost every bakery in Hong Kong sells pineapple cake, and many tea restaurants and ice rooms also supply it. Usually eaten as breakfast or snacks. The price of pineapple bags is also quite cheap, generally around 5 yuan dollars, which is very popular with Hong Kong people. Besides Hong Kong, it is also common in South China.

Because of its high content of calories, fat and cholesterol, pineapple bags have been designated as "Top Ten Bad Snacks" by experts in Hong Kong.

2. Rub all the materials evenly until the tendons come out.

3. Put a bowl of water in the oven, preheat it to 190 degrees, turn off the power, cover the dough with a wet towel or plastic wrap and ferment it to twice its size, about 40 minutes to 1 hour. (1 fermentation)

4. Divide the dough into about 50-60g portions and roll out the stuffing. Secondary fermentation (the method is the same as fermentation, about 20 minutes). Until the dough is completely inelastic (fingers will not rebound)

5. Shovel the pineapple skin on the dough, draw a grid with a toothpick and brush the egg liquid (not the egg in the material, but another egg).

The fermentation time of 1 is for reference only, and the key depends on the size and elasticity.

When making, pineapple peel and shredded coconut stuffing are split in half, which feels just right.

Finally, * * * made 18, just two baking trays.

It is very important to knead dough, which is almost to roll the dough thin and poke holes with your fingers, so that the edges should be smooth, otherwise the finished product will be like steamed bread.

5 fillings can be replaced with honey red beans, crispy granules, souffle fillings, etc. According to your own preferences, you can also use ham and mushrooms to wrap the salty stuffing without pineapple skin.

Mix flour+milk powder+sugar, dig a small hole in the middle, slowly pour in yeast water, add eggs and start kneading. The kneading process will be sticky. Add a little oil to your hands to help knead the dough. When it's almost time, move it to the chopping board and continue to knead it until it is smooth. It's too sticky You can add some flour, but only a little. It took me almost half an hour to knead the dough. Add raisins in the middle and knead into a ball.

Derived food

Pineapple oil is a food developed from pineapple bag, which is made by cutting it horizontally and putting a thick piece of butter (or cream) on it. The best way to eat pineapple oil is to spread cold butter on the freshly baked pineapple bag, so that the butter will melt in the middle of the bag under the influence of the heat of the pineapple bag, and the melted butter will turn the bag golden yellow. The difference between pineapple oil and pineapple bag when eating is that it can taste thick butter. However, due to the addition of butter, the fat and cholesterol content of pineapple oil is higher than that of pineapple bag.

Many tea restaurants in Hong Kong will serve this food with milk tea during afternoon tea or breakfast. Many Hong Kong movies and TV series also have pineapple bags and pineapple oil. For example, the local animation "Prince of Pineapple Oil in McDull" takes "Prince of Pineapple Oil" as the nickname of Mcdull's father, Mai Bing. Some cake shops or tea restaurants have added changes to the pineapple bag, creating new flavors, such as lunch meat pineapple bag, mini pineapple bag, milk yellow pineapple bag, laver pineapple bag, red bean pineapple bag, coconut pineapple bag and barbecued pineapple bag, and even real pineapple stuffed pineapple bag.
