Homemade delicious fried dough sticks
Overview
I'm making fried dough sticks again today. Firstly, I want to make a dish with fried dough sticks, and secondly, I want to test the effect of shortening the refrigeration time. Because whether it is healthy youtiao or state banquet youtiao, the dough needs to be refrigerated for at least 8 hours, so the waiting time feels a bit long. Today, while I have some time off, I want to put it into practice and shorten the dough making time to less than 2-3 hours to see what the effect will be. As expected, the fried dough sticks still rose well. The recipe for making fried dough sticks this time is neither state banquet fried dough sticks nor healthy fried dough sticks. It is based on the ingredients readily available on hand, and the taste is not bad at all. If I had to compare, the fried dough sticks at the state banquet would be the best. Because it has a large amount of butter, of course the texture will be softer. The second is the delicious fried dough sticks I made today. It is somewhere between a state banquet and healthy. It still tastes very good! Because it is made on a trial basis, the quantity is not large, and the ingredients can be doubled if the population is large.
