Step 1 . Prepare 3 grams of yeast.
Step 2 . Melt the yeast with warm water.
Step 3 . Pour an appropriate amount of flour into the basin.
Step 4 . Pour the melted yeast water into the flour and stir well.
Step 5 . Slowly add an appropriate amount of water in several times. Because the water absorption of flour of different brands is different, the water here should be slowly controlled by yourself. Add the water in several times and use chopsticks to help stir the flour into wadding shape while adding, and then knead the dough by hand. When there are "three lights", namely hand light, dough light and basin light, it shows that the dough is kneaded.
Step 6 . The dough needs to be fermented and covered with fresh-keeping film to prevent moisture from evaporating and the dough from hardening.
Step 7 . In warm weather, the dough will ferment faster. To judge whether the dough is well fermented, you can visually observe that the dough is 2-2.5 times the size of the original dough, indicating that the fermentation is good.
Step 8 . In addition, peel the inside of the dough with your hands. If it is in a network shape, it also indicates that the fermentation is good.
Step 9 . Take out the fermented dough and knead it on the chopping board. In order to prevent adhesion, sprinkle some loose powder on the chopping board and knead the dough into a strip of uniform size.
Step 10 . Cut the dough into the same size. I cut about 12 pieces of dough in this amount.
Step 11 . Press all the preparations into oblate balls for standby, take one of them and roll it into a circle with a rolling pin with a diameter of about 10 cm.
Step 12 . Brush an appropriate amount of salad oil.
Step 13 . Fold the dough in half.
Step 14 . Use flower pieces to press out beautiful patterns. If there are no flower pieces, you can also press the patterns with clean comb teeth. Press the pattern hard, so that the pattern won't disappear when steaming.
Step 15 . Press all the dough into such a lotus leaf pattern in turn, and place it on the chopping board to wake up for about ten minutes. Put cold water in the steamer, spread the steaming cloth, and steam the lotus leaf cake.
Step 16 . After boiling over high heat, turn to medium heat and steam for about 15 minutes. Don't panic about steaming the lotus leaf cake out of the pot, let it stew for another 5 minutes.
Step 17 . Steamed lotus leaf cake can be mixed with some meat or pickles, which is a delicious "rougamo". In addition, I tried it. If I can't finish steaming too much at one time, I can also put it in the freezer after cooling it. When I want to eat it, I can take it out and steam it in a steamer, too!
