Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Soak the yeast in water for a while, then add flour and purple rice flour to make a dough of moderate hardness and softness.

   

2. 2 There is no need to knead it very smoothly, just cover it with a damp cloth or a lid and leave it in a warm place to ferment; (when the weather gets colder and you need to add more yeast, you can knead the dough with warm water warmed by your hands)

   

3. 3 After about two and a half hours, the dough has risen until it is full. When you pull the dough apart and take a look, a big honeycomb appears;

   

4. 4 Take out the dough and start kneading it. Press the dough firmly and keep rotating it. The dough will be smooth for about 10 minutes;

   

5. 5 Divide the dough into the size you like, sprinkle with appropriate amount of flour to prevent sticking,

   

6. 6 If you want to make steamed buns with noodles, you need to add flour into the dough at this time. The taller steamed buns are steamed buns with noodles,

   

7. 7 The low-lying steamed buns are kneaded directly and kneaded by hand on the chopping board. Because there is no flour, it is easy to lie down when proofing; the kneaded steamed buns are covered with plastic wrap for proofing;

   

8. 8 When the steamed buns have risen until they start to swell and become light, you can put them into the pot; boil them in cold water, start with medium-low heat, then turn to medium-high heat after boiling, and wait for 15 minutes;

   

9. 9 After turning off the heat, slightly expose the pot lid to let the air release, then pick up the steamed buns on the lid and let them cool;
