The protagonists in the novel cannot escape the temptation of delicious food. Jiang Ting likes to eat custard buns.
Wu Wei is in love with spicy strips, and Chu Wanning actually competes with Mo Ran for sweets. It can be seen that as long as faced with delicious food, no matter how powerful people are, they will completely ignore their own image.
Ingredients for a recipe of custard buns: 200g flour, 1g yeast, 110g warm water. Steps: 1. Pour the flour and yeast into a basin, mix evenly, then pour in warm water in small amounts, stirring while pouring, until all the flour is incorporated.
Stir into dough and then knead it into a slightly soft dough.
2. Cover the dough and ferment until it doubles in size.
It should be noted that the weather is hot now and the dough rises faster, so the amount of yeast can be appropriately reduced.
Ingredients for making custard filling: 2 eggs, 20g milk powder, 25g flour, 90g milk, 35g butter, 40g sugar. Method 1. Beat the eggs in a slightly larger bowl, pour the sugar in and beat into a uniform egg liquid.
Then pour in the milk and stir evenly.
2. Mix the milk powder and flour evenly, then sift it with a soy milk filter. Pour the sifted flour and milk powder mixture into the egg liquid, stir with chopsticks or an egg whisk, and try to stir up all the gnocchi.
3. Sieve the mixed batter again to filter out the remaining small dough lumps, so that we get a bowl of smooth batter.
4. Put the butter into the batter, add water to the steamer and bring to a boil. Place the bowl on the basket, cover the lid and steam for two or three minutes. Then open the lid and stir it at the bottom to prevent the egg batter from sinking to the bottom. Then cover the lid and continue steaming.
Repeat several times until the egg batter is basically solidified. Open the lid and stir with chopsticks while heating until it becomes a relatively viscous solid state. Then turn off the heat.
It is best to use a small pot with a flat and thin bottom, which will heat up faster and reach the appropriate consistency quickly.
5. The custard filling can be used when it is warm but not hot to the touch.
You can also cool the custard filling and freeze it in the refrigerator, then roll it into small balls. This will make it easier to close the mouth when making custard buns.
In this recipe for custard filling, the proportion of butter can be slightly reduced or increased. If you don't have butter at home, you can use vegetable oil with no obvious taste instead.
Personally, I think the amount of sugar is just right. People who like sweets and people who don't like sweets will find it just right, sweet but not greasy.
