【Crispy Hydrangea Bun】

Overview

This plastic surgery was a look I learned a long time ago, and I didn’t do it again because of the trouble. However, this style has a nice name called hydrangea bag. It should be because the shape itself is round and round like a hydrangea~ At first, you may be a little confused when looking at the knitting method of this style, but in fact, as long as you follow the steps step by step, you will quickly become proficient. After doing one or two, you will be able to knit it very skillfully. However, because the number of small hydrangeas to be made for this amount is relatively large, it is very necessary to move faster~ Materials: Main dough: 180g high-gluten flour, 50g fine sugar, 3g yeast, 3g salt, 30g water, 47g egg liquid, 30g butter. Liquid: 100g high-gluten flour, 100g water, 1g yeast. Surface decoration: appropriate amount of egg liquid, appropriate amount of crispy chips, 8g wine-soaked cranberries.
