The time for steaming the trowel depends on the size of the trowel. Generally, steamed buns need to be steamed for 1 hour before they are cooked, and then they can be lifted to deflate. If you are not going to eat it at that time, take the steamed buns out of the steamer in time to prevent them from sticking to the bottom. Next, the most critical thing is how long it takes to steam the steamed buns. If the steaming time is not properly grasped, not only will it be difficult to steam the steamed buns, but it will also be affected by frequent opening of the pot lid to check whether the steamed buns are cooked. The taste and aroma of steamed buns. Therefore, we must grasp the time of steaming steamed buns.
1. Generally, 20 minutes after the steamed buns are put into the pot and the water boils. In addition, the steaming time of steamed buns will vary depending on the size of the buns. The larger ones take longer; the average size is about 3-4 centimeters in diameter, and it only takes about ten minutes after boiling the pot. You have to master the details yourself. To see if the steamed buns are cooked, you can pick up the steamed buns, turn them over and press them with your hands. If it bounces up (the position where it is connected to the drawer), it is cooked; if there is a pit, it means it is undercooked.
2. If it shrinks, it is generally due to three reasons: First, the noodles are not cooked well. The second is that when using alkali, less alkali is used. The third reason and the most common problem is that the lid of the pot is too tight and the water vapor cannot escape. This problem always occurs when the fire is high! You only need to cover the pot too tightly when the fire is high. , leave a little gap to allow the steam to escape smoothly, so that it will not shrink into a dead-faced steamed bun. In this way, the steamed buns will be softer and more delicious.
3. In addition, when making steamed buns, the noodles must be fully rested. Generally, they rest for 10-15 minutes before steaming. If the finished steamed buns take a short time to rise on the chopping board, they should be put on the drawer when the pot is not boiling (the process of boiling water is also equivalent to the proofing of the noodles).
4. There is a small transparent area on the steamed buns because the steam water from the pot lid is poured on it. You only need to open the pot lid immediately after the steamed buns are steamed and this will not happen. .
Then, let’s take a look at the method of judging whether steamed buns are raw or cooked:
(1) Pat the buns gently with your hands, and they will be cooked if they are elastic;
(2) ) Tear off the skin of a piece of steamed bun. If the skin can be peeled off, it is cooked, otherwise it is undercooked;
(3) After lightly pressing the steamed bun with your fingers, the dent will quickly flatten into a cooked steamed bun. If the dent does not recover, it means Not steamed yet.
