Production steps

1. Preparation materials: 500g pumpkin (peeled), whole wheat flour 1000g, jujube10 slice, 5g yeast powder and a little sugar.

2. Steaming pumpkin: put the prepared pumpkin slices into a steamer, steam for 10- 15 minutes, take them out, cool them and crush them.

3. Mix the dough: pour the crushed pumpkin and whole wheat flour into a basin, add a little sugar to the yeast powder, and rinse with water. Pumpkin and whole wheat flour are fully stirred, while yeast powder and white sugar water are added, paying attention to the amount of water. When kneading dough, add water while stirring, stir with chopsticks to form cotton wool, and then knead dough by hand until the dough is smooth.

4. Proofing: Put the dough in the pot and cover it, or cover the surface with a damp drawer cloth, and put it in a warm place to ferment to twice the size. The length of time can be mastered by yourself.

5. Kneading: Sprinkle a little flour on the chopping board and knead the dough repeatedly until the dough surface is smooth.

6. Molding: After the dough is molded into a cylindrical dough stick, the dough stick is cut into the same amount of "flour agent", and then rubbed back and forth by hand to form a round and flower-shaped steamed bread, and the jujube is inserted into the top of the steamed bread.

7. Placement: Put some flour on the bottom of steamed bread and put it on the curtain (breathable board). Leave a certain distance between steamed buns, wait for fermentation for about 20 minutes, and press the surface to feel elastic, thus completing the proofing process.

8. Steaming steamed bread: spread a wet cloth on the steamer drawer or brush a little oil directly, put the raw steamed bread in, set it at equal distance, cover the lid and steam for 18-20 minutes.

9. Out of the pot: after the ceasefire, let it stand for 3 minutes, then open the lid and pick out the steamed bread. Put them in bamboo baskets or breathable baskets to avoid sticking to each other.

skill

1. Pumpkins should be crushed. If there are lumps, the dough is not smooth and beautiful.

2. If you don't need to wake up, steam the steamed bread with cold water, and wake up when the water boils. If the proofing process is completed, steamed bread can be steamed directly with boiling water.

3. If cold water is used for steaming, after the water in the steamer is boiled, turn to medium heat for steaming. If you steam with boiling water, steam directly with medium heat.

4, the general pumpkin steamed bread is made of refined flour, white and awkward; Whole wheat steamed bread is made of whole wheat flour, which is the whole grain ground from wheat. Wheat bran contains cellulose with high nutritional value, which can keep people healthy and energetic and is very beneficial to the body.
