Today I would like to share with you a small flower roll that is both beautiful and delicious, and the method is very simple

You don't need to make dough, you don't need to make puff pastry, you don't need to twist the flower roll, you just need to press everything in one roll, and the flower roll will be formed.

The simplest small flower rolls

Dough: 300 grams of plain flour, 3 grams of yeast, 160 grams of water.

Ingredients: Edible oil, salt.

Here's how

Put 300 grams of plain flour in a basin, add 3 grams of yeast, pour 160 grams of water, and stir with chopsticks to make a large dough without dry flour. If you want the flower roll to ferment quickly, use warm water and noodles, if the action is slow, you are afraid that the flower roll will start to ferment before it is done, then use room temperature water. In fact, it is the hottest season of midsummer, and it is quite fast to ferment with room temperature water.

Knead the smooth dough with moderate hardness and softness, so that there are three lights: face light, pot light, hand light, the surface of the dough is smooth and delicate, which means that the dough is kneaded in place, and the flower rolls made are beautiful and delicious.

Place the dough on a cutting board and roll out a large rectangular sheet with a rolling pin, the thinner the rollout, the more layers it will roll up. Then evenly brush with a layer of cooking oil, sprinkle with a layer of dry flour to prevent the flow of smooth dough sheets, which is equivalent to a simple version of puff pastry, and then sprinkle a little edible salt, and the flower rolls made with a hint of saltiness are more delicious.

Roll slowly along the long side of the dough sheet

The oblique knife is cut to the left and right into small pieces of dough in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid.

Stand up the trapezoidal dough block with the narrow side (top bottom) facing up and the wide side (bottom bottom) facing down, and place it horizontally in the middle of the top bottom with chopsticks.

Press it down vertically, but the strength should be moderate, don't break it, so that the flower roll is ready, how about it, it's simple, I didn't lie to you, right?

After everything is done, it is directly placed on the steamer drawer to start fermentation, put water in the steamer in advance, spread an anti-stick pad on the steamer, or directly brush a thin layer of oil on the steamer until the anti-stick effect.

After about 20-30 minutes, the flower roll expands visibly, and because the inside of the fermentation is full of gas, it is light to pick up. Turn on high heat to bring the water to a boil, steam over medium heat for 15 minutes, turn off the heat and simmer for 3 minutes, then quickly open the lid and take it out.

The small flower roll in this way, fluffy and noisy, is both beautiful and delicious, and the method is simple, and friends who try it for the first time can also succeed, so that you can increase your confidence, chase after the victory, and make more delicious food.

See, isn't it a bit like a butterfly?
