How to make fried dough sticks and recipe 1
Ingredients: 5000 grams of ordinary powder, alkali (60 grams in winter, 70 grams in spring, 85 grams in summer), warm water (3000 grams in winter, summer 2750g).
Preparation method
1. Mix alkali and salt in proportion, crush it into a basin, add warm water and stir to dissolve to form
emulsion

And generate a lot of foam and make a sound, then add flour and stir into snowflakes, pound to make it smooth and soft If the dough has
strength
, cover it with
warm cloth
or quilt, let it rest for 20 to 30 minutes, and then put it into the dough. Pound once,
fold again
the dough, do this 3 to 4 times to make the dough generate gas [1]
and form holes to make it smooth.
2. Grease the chopping board, place 1/5 of the dough on the chopping board, drag it into a long strip, and roll it out to 1 cm with a
small dough
stick Thick, 10 cm wide strips, then use a knife to chop into 1.5 cm wide strips, stack the two pieces together, and use
bamboo chopsticks
smoothly
Punch the length from the middle
tightly, pinch both ends gently with both hands, rotate and stretch into a long strip of about 30 cm, put it into a 80% hot oil pan, and stir while frying. The billet is bulging, plump, crispy, and golden brown.
Making principle: The dough used to make fried dough sticks is alkali and salt dough. Due to the special reaction of this kind of dough, it is subject to certain restrictions in the maturation process. It is generally only suitable for high-temperature frying methods to achieve the characteristics of soft and crispy. The effect of alkali (
soda ash
) and salt (strong
coarse salt
) added in dough preparation on water It will produce gas and make the dough rise.
3. Whether the fried dough sticks can be fried to be soft, crispy, yellow and fragrant. The key to making them is: stack each two strips up and down, and press them in the middle with bamboo chopsticks; do not press them too tightly. , to prevent the two dough sticks from sticking together. The edges of the two dough sticks must not stick together; nor should they be pressed too lightly to ensure that the two dough sticks do not separate when fried; rotation is to ensure the above requirements, and at the same time during the frying process , easy to flip. When gently pinching both ends with both hands, the middle of the two ends should be gently pinched tightly, and the two ends cannot be separated during frying
The principle of initiating the fried dough sticks is: when the fried dough sticks enter the oil pan,
Foaming agent
When heated, gas is generated and the dough sticks expand. However, due to the high temperature of the oil, the surface of the fried dough sticks immediately hardened, which affected the continued expansion of the fried dough sticks. Therefore, the method of stacking two fried dough sticks one above the other and pressing them in the middle with bamboo chopsticks was adopted.
Water vapor
and foaming gas are constantly overflowing, and the hot oil cannot contact the joint of the two dough blocks, so that the dough block at the joint is in a soft state
dextrin
In this state, it can continue to expand and the fried dough sticks will become more and more fluffy.
Method 2
Ingredients: 300 grams of flour, 250 ml of warm milk,
Baking powder
1 tsp,
Baking soda
Half a teaspoon, 1 teaspoon of salt, 25 grams of vegetable oil.
Method:
1. Dissolve baking powder, baking soda and salt with warm milk, mix with flour and knead evenly, then pour in a little vegetable oil, knead until smooth and cover. Leave the lid at room temperature overnight (be careful not to put it in the refrigerator);
2. The next morning, place the noodles on an oiled chopping board. Spread them flat without kneading them and arrange them into a width of about
7cm
, a long strip about 1cm thick, and then cut into small strips 2cm wide with a knife. Then use chopsticks to press on each small strip, and then pinch the two ends of each two small strips together;
3. Heat the pan and pour oil. When the oil temperature is high, put the prepared fried dough sticks together.
Green dough
After stretching it, put it in a frying pan and fry until golden brown and take it out.
