Today I would like to share with you the practice of a flower roll.
First prepare the green dough: 300 grams of plain flour, 500 grams of spinach, 1 tablespoon of salt, 3 grams of yeast; White dough: 300 g of plain flour, 200 ml of warm water, 3 g of yeast.
The first step is to wash the spinach, add an appropriate amount of water to the pot, boil over high heat, add salt, put the washed spinach in and blanch it with water, remove the cold water, control the moisture, cut it into small pieces with a knife, and put it in the food processor to squeeze it into spinach juice for later use.
The second step is to pour the ordinary flour into a large bowl, add yeast, stir well, pour the squeezed spinach juice into the flour in stages, stir with chopsticks while pouring, stir into a large cotton wool shape, knead the dough with your hands, and knead it into a smooth dough.
The third step is to add yeast to the plain flour and stir it with warm water to form a white dough, knead the two types of dough, put them on the panel, and roll them into 0.5 cm thick round cakes with a rolling pin.
The fourth step is to smear a layer of cooking oil on the dough, stack the green dough on the white dough, divide the dough into two halves evenly with a knife in the middle, cut half of it into a long strip one centimeter wide, put it on the other half of the dough in order, roll it from one end to the other, roll it into a long strip, and then cut it into five centimeter wide dough segments with a knife to arrange the dough segments into a circle.
In the fifth step, put warm water in the steamer, spread a layer of oil-absorbing paper on the pot curtain, put the finished raw rice on it, cover it, ferment it until it is twice as large, steam it for 30 minutes on high heat, simmer for another five minutes, and the steaming flower rolls are out of the pot.
The flower rolls made in this way are beautiful and delicious, fluffy and soft, and the layers are distinct, so if you like it, try it at home!
