Today, I will share the method of siu mai, from mixing noodles to adjusting the filling, explaining in detail, which is very good for breakfast
1. I first soaked the glutinous rice overnight, so that it was easier to steam, and spread the glutinous rice on the steamer cloth
2. Don't spread the glutinous rice too thickly, otherwise it will not be easy to cook, and the glutinous rice should be steamed on high heat for 20 minutes
3. Soak the shiitake mushrooms in advance
4. The following is the side dish I prepared, shiitake mushrooms, carrots, and bacon are all cut into small cubes, and you can also change them to your favorite side dishes
You can put corn and green beans
5. Heat the oil, add the diced meat and stir the fat to make out the fat
6. Add the diced shiitake mushrooms and carrots that have been chopped before and stir-fry evenly
7. Let's season with salt, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce and pepper
8. Stir well again and turn off the heat
9. Add the previously steamed glutinous rice and mix evenly so that the filling is ready
10. After the filling is adjusted, you can taste the saltiness, and add a little salt when it is light
11. Next, add 2 grams of salt to 200 grams of flour to increase gluten
12. Mix the dough with water, about 100ml
13. Add a small amount of water to the flour and stir it with chopsticks to form a flocculent
14. Mix your hands into a dough, cover with plastic wrap and let stand for 20 minutes
15. After the dough is awakened, arrange it into long strips and cut it into small evenly sized pieces, about the same size as the usual dumplings
16. Sprinkle with dry flour and let sticky
17. Press the small dose flattened again
18. Roll out the dough sheets the size of a dumpling wrapper, and the thickness should be slightly thinner than the dumpling wrapper
19. Use chopsticks to press out the lace on the edge, this step is for good looks, and those who are too troublesome can be omitted
20. Put the filling in the middle
21. Put the filling down with the right hand of the tiger's mouth, leave the lace on it, pinch it tightly and tidy it up
