Knead the dough again after 15 minutes, and fully knead the salt, sugar, and baking soda in the dough; then cover the dough and let it rise again for 30 minutes to let the dough relax and rise; after the dough has risen, place it on the chopping board and use a rolling pin Roll out the dough into a piece as thick as a dime.

2. Cut the rolled dough into long strips as shown in the picture, and then stack them in pairs; fold the folded dough up and down, and cut a knife in the middle; cut the folded dough Pass one end through the middle of the cut hole. Once turned over, a sesame leaf embryo is ready. All the remaining dough pieces will be made into sesame leaf embryos in turn; add an appropriate amount of cooking oil to the pot and heat the oil to 5-5 60% heat, then turn to medium heat, put the hemp leaf embryos into the oil pan, fry one side until golden brown, then flip over, fry both sides until golden brown, then take out.

The second method

The fried mochi noodles should be mixed hard, otherwise they will burn when eaten; take out the dough and press it repeatedly, knead evenly, and sprinkle a little cornstarch, as it will stick easily when rolled out with flour. Roll out the dough repeatedly until it is about 1 mm thin. The thinner you roll it, the crispier the hemp leaves will be. This step is key. Try to keep the center and edges of the dough the same thickness. After rolling, cut into wide strips, stack them together, and cut into diamond-shaped slices with a diagonal knife. You can fry it directly at this time.

2. You can also cut a slit in the middle of the diamond piece and pass one of the corners through the slit to make a shape, so that the finished product looks better; when the oil is 50% hot, add the hemp leaves in turn Sprinkle it into the pot and flip it gently with chopsticks to heat evenly; when the fried sesame leaves are slightly yellow, take them out to control the oil. After cooling, the flavor will be crispier. Do not fry until golden brown at once, as the residual heat will turn black and the finished product will be bitter. The hemp leaves are really brittle and can break into several pieces when they fall on the ground.
