When steaming steamed buns, is it harmful to the body to add too much yeast? For the sake of your family's health, you might as well take a look

I remember when I was a child, I steamed steamed buns at home, I had to start mixing noodles one night in advance, and then put them on the big kang, cover them with several layers of quilts, and it took a few days to make the noodles well, and the dough left behind to make a "noodle primer", and next time I used this noodle primer to make noodles, using this method to make noodles, it is very easy to be sour, so I also need to add alkaline noodles to neutralize the sour taste in the later stage, but if the amount of alkaline noodles is not well mastered, the steamed steamed bread is easy to have uneven color, yellow color, and bitter taste.

The appearance of yeast powder makes it easier and more convenient to make noodles, one pound of flour and 5 grams of yeast powder can fill a pot of noodles in just one hour. But some friends may ask, yeast powder is a modern food additive, all say that you usually eat food additives, so steamed steamed bread with yeast powder, or yeast powder added too much is harmful to the body? Let's explore whether adding too much yeast powder when steaming steamed buns has any effect on the body? For the sake of your family's health, you might as well take a look.

What is Yeast Powder?

Before using yeast powder, we first need to figure out what is yeast powder? Yeast powder is a single bacterial fungus, which can also be said to be a "natural leavening agent". The yeast in yeast powder is a beneficial microorganism that, under certain conditions, can multiply in large numbers. When we use yeast flour to make dough, the yeast powder and the dough are mixed, and at the right temperature and humidity, the yeast powder begins to multiply, producing a large amount of carbon dioxide gas, which can make the dough more fluffy.

Is adding too much yeast powder bad for your body?

When it comes to fungi, many friends may think of bacteria, in fact, yeast powder is not bacteria, but beneficial bacteria, there is a certain nutrition, regular consumption is not only harmless to the body, but also has certain benefits. If we want to ferment quickly, we can increase the amount of yeast powder appropriately.

In addition to yeast powder, we often use baking soda and baking powder when making dough, but baking soda and baking powder are chemical additives, and we must master the dosage when using them, and we must not overeat them, otherwise it will affect the body.

The correct process for dough making

1. Add 5 grams of yeast powder and 3 grams of sugar to a bowl, add 250 grams of warm water, and stir with chopsticks to dissolve.

2. Put 500 grams of flour in a basin, add the melted yeast water, stir it into a dough with chopsticks, knead it into a dough, wrap it in plastic wrap, and put it in a warm place to rest for 1 hour.

3. The dough is fermented to twice the size and taken out, kneaded and exhausted on the cutting board, and the excess gas is discharged and the steamed buns are started to be kneaded.
