The key to making millet flour steamed bread is to master the right fermentation time and water, as well as the ratio of ingredients. Here are the detailed steps to make it:
Material.
Ingredients**: 450 grams of flour.
Ingredients**: 70 grams of millet flour, 3 grams of yeast, 1 gram of baking powder, 10 grams of sugar, 1 gram of salt, about 260 grams of water (increase or decrease according to the water absorption of flour).
Steps:
1.*Yeast Dissolve**: Add sugar and yeast to warm water and stir until the yeast is completely dissolved.
2.*Noodles**: After mixing the flour and millet noodles evenly, add baking powder, salt, and then slowly add the dissolved yeast water to knead into a smooth dough.
3.*Fermentation**: Place the dough in a clean basin, cover with plastic wrap and leave to rise in a warm place until it is twice the original volume.
4.*Shaping**: Take out the fermented dough, knead it thoroughly and roll it into long strips, and then cut it into evenly sized steamed bun blanks.
5.*Proofing**: Put the cut steamed bread blank on the steaming grid and let it rise for a second time, about 20 minutes, adjust the time according to temperature and humidity.
6.*Steaming**: Proofed steamed bun blanks are steamed in a pot under cold water, turned on medium heat, and steamed for about 18 minutes after steaming.
7.*Turn off the heat and remove from the pot**: Turn off the heat after steaming, wait for 5 minutes before opening the lid to avoid the steamed buns collapsing.
Tips.
The ratio of millet flour to flour should be appropriate, too much millet flour will cause the steamed bread to taste too firm.
Fermentation time and temperature are very important for the dough, too short or too long fermentation time will affect the softness of the steamed bread.
The second proofing can make the steamed bread softer, and insufficient or excessive proofing will affect the taste of the final product.
Before steaming, the steaming grid should be rubbed with oil in advance to prevent the steamed bread from sticking.
Eat healthy.
Millet noodles are nutritious, easy to digest, and suitable for people with poor gastrointestinal function.
Steamed bread itself is also a staple food that nourishes the stomach, especially suitable for dinner, easy to digest, and will not burden the stomach.
By following the steps above, you can make steamed buns that are both fluffy and full of millet aroma. Eating in moderation can add health and deliciousness to your life.
