How to make cornmeal nests
Step 1
Mix cornmeal and white flour in 1:1 ratio and sift it if you have the condition. Add a small amount of sugar, according to your favorite sweetness. Mix well!
Step 2
Scald the noodles with pure boiling water, the trick: one hand holding the boiling water slowly to the basin of each part of the pouring little by little, the other hand with chopsticks to quickly mix up the large particles, about half of the noodles scalded into the large particles can be, the water should be added slowly, rather less than more! The water should be added slowly, not too much! I'd rather have a little less than a lot!
Step 3
Slowly knead the dough into a slightly dry dough, during the kneading process, you will feel that the dough is a little dry, do not be anxious, the hot water in the large particles will be slowly absorbed by the dry noodles, and then put it for ten minutes to wake up the noodles. If you put too much water, and the dough is very soft, you can skip the ten-minute wake-up process, and do step 5 right away.
Step 4
After ten minutes, knead the dough again, it will become this kind of slightly wet dough, if it is still very dry, wet your hands with cool water and then knead.
Step 5
Start: Use a small piece of dough to form a smooth ball, the size as shown in the picture, smaller is easier to cook, the shape is cute.
Step 6
Like this, dip your right thumb into some cool water*** go, the surface will be a little bit of a little fast hero, prepare a small bowl of cool water standby.
Step 7
Left hand also slightly dipped in cool water to prevent dipping, thumb inward 抍 inserted at the same time, the left hand slowly turned to pinch into the nest.
Step 8
The finished product, if there is a crack on the side, just pinch it like playdough, the surface is soft and highly malleable ^_^
