Tips

  1. 1. When making the dough, do not add water all at once, but add it slowly while watching, because different flours have different water absorption, and the dough will be harder than the finished product. It will stand up straighter, the pleats will be clear and beautiful, and the taste will be better;
  2. 2. Those who are good at making buns think that the buns are softer if they are made from yeast dough. The dead dough will make the closing part too thick and hard, which is more suitable for making dumplings. .
