Clarifying flour can be replaced with raw flour. However, the dim sum made from clarified flour will have a translucent effect, and if you use other starches instead of clarified flour, the result will not be as pronounced.

If you don't have the powder, you can make your own. Wheat flour is softened into a dough, put it into the water and wash it directly. When the dough is washed until it no longer shrinks in size, the rest of the dough is gluten, and the powder is in the water, as long as the water is properly settled to the separation of the turbidity and the water is slowly poured out of the upper layer of water, and then the rest of the mucus is dried out in the sun or dried, then you get the powder.

Note:

Wheat flour and into the dough, put in the water directly wash, wash until the volume of the dough is no longer shrinking, the rest of the dough is gluten, and the powder is in the water, leave the precipitation, and wait until the clear and turbid separation, you can shine out of the silhouette, slowly pouring out of the upper layer of water, the following viscous material after drying or drying is the clarified powder. The first thing I'd like to say is that I don't know what to do.

Clear powder with boiling water when used to make a little bit, so that its paste with viscous and can be used and into the dough. The pasted starch can also be used as an adhesive, natural and environmentally friendly, sticky and firm, but in the high temperature and high humidity environment is prone to mold.

With potatoes or sweet potatoes into the pulp, or with mung bean flour and noodles, can also produce the corresponding clarified flour, but it is difficult to get gluten.
