Welcome the Spring Festival and make a lotus jujube cake for your family
Introduction:
"It's almost new year's day. When I was a child, my mother always steamed out a lot of bean buns, jujube cakes and cut cakes in advance. Watching the steaming pan of pastries, Hua'er felt warm in her heart. At that time, her childhood was the happiest during the festival. Of course, the traditional Spring Festival was also the time when she could eat the most delicious food. Last night, Hua'er made this lotus jujube cake and brought it to her mother at the weekend. I hope the old man will live a long and healthy life. "
Production steps:
Step 1: dissolve the dry yeast in warm water, pour it into flour, stir it into flocculent with chopsticks, then knead it into smooth dough by hand, put it in a warm place and ferment it to twice the size.
Step 2: mix brown sugar and a little flour. Add flour to reduce fluidity and avoid scattering brown sugar everywhere.
Step 3: take out the fermented dough and roll it out with a rolling pin.
Step 4: divide into 3 dough, about 260g, 160g and 60g.
Step 5: first knead the largest dough until smooth, then roll it into a round cake, and roll the other two in turn.
Step 6: press out the lines by turning the fork around the edge of the cake. The dough is soft and has a lot of moisture, so you must sprinkle some thin powder from time to time during the production process.
Step 7: according to the edge of the grain, cut the edge every 2.5cm or so.
Step 8: knead the edge of each piece with your index finger and thumb.
Step 9: knead the edge of each piece with your index finger and thumb.
Step 10: Sprinkle brown sugar on top of the largest dough.
Step 11: then spread the lotus cake in the middle layer and press it slightly.
Step 12: Sprinkle brown sugar on the surface of the middle layer. Finally, spread the smallest dough. Pay attention to the lotus petals stagger placed, more beautiful.
Step 13: finally put dates on the surface. Here, Hua'er forgot a small detail, which led to the jujube sticking. Remember to soak the jujube in water to make it expand slightly, so that it can be firmly fixed on the cake.
Step 14: now put it on the drawer cloth, cover it and wake up for 20 minutes. Then boil water and steam over high heat for 15 minutes. Then simmer for 5 minutes. This is just out of the pot, red dates forget to soak, so some away.
Materials required:
Flour: 300g
Dry yeast: 3 G
Warm water: 185g
Brown sugar: 20g
Red dates: 4G
Note: the formula has been made for many times. 300 grams of flour, 185 grams of warm water, and the dough is slightly wet, but the lotus cake is very soft. Even if it's cool, it's just a little hot. Here, please note that if it's warm milk, it's more appropriate to use 200 grams, which is different from the proportion of water. In addition, don't put too much brown sugar, otherwise it will flow out a lot. Like to eat brown sugar, you can do some brown sugar package to eat.
