Provided by Elaine

Categories     Chinese

Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 5

300 g all-purpose flour + 2 tbsp. more for dusting
1 and 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
2 tablespoons sugar ( ,optional)
150 g water or 20ml more if needed
a tiny pinch of salt ( ,around 1.5% of the dough)

Steps:

  • Prepare warm water around 35 °C and melt the sugar in. And mix the yeast with the water. Mix well and set aside for around 5 minutes. If you do not want sugar, just skip it.
  • Place salt and flour in a large bowl. Pour the water with yeast slowly to the bowl with flour and stir with a chopstick.
  • Then knead the flour into smooth and soft dough. At the very beginning, it might be a little bit sticky. Or you can simple resort to a stand mixer.
  • Cover the bowl and let the dough rest for around 1 hour or until the paste ball doubles in size.
  • When the dough is double in size, get paste ball out, dust the operating board and re-knead the dough for 3-4 minutes until the dough becomes almost smooth again. Divide the dough into two parts, keep kneading and shape each part into 1 inch thick long log.
  • Remove the two ends and use a very sharp knife to cut the log to smaller pieces (around 2 cm wide). Try to keep the original shape. Place the buns to a lined steamer one by one. Leave some space among each one as the buns rise after steaming.
  • Add cold water to your wok or steel steamer. Cover the lid and rest for 10 minutes in summer and around 20 minutes in winter or until the bun becomes fluffy again.
  • Use high fire to bring the water to a boil and continue to steam for around 20 to 25 minutes (depending on the size of your buns).
  • Remove off the fire and wait for around 5 minutes before opening the lid. Serve warm or re-steam to soften before serving.

Categories     Breads

Time 2h

Yield 16 buns

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 lb purple sweet potato or 1/2 lb orange sweet potato
1 cup water or 1 cup milk
1/2 cup sugar (I use 2 T sugar for a less sweet bun)
3 teaspoons yeast
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons lard or 4 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Peel and cook sweet potato.
  • Puree cooked sweet potato in blender with water or milk and sugar.
  • Pour sweet potato liquid into a bowl, sprinkle with yeast, and allow to dissolve.
  • Sift dry ingredients together.
  • Stir flour mixture into yeast mixture. Knead in 1 additional cup of flour as needed.
  • Melt butter or lard and knead into dough.
  • Let rise until double (60-90 min).
  • Roll dough into flat rectangle; starting from front edge, roll dough into log. Cut log into 16 equal segments. (See photos and instructions for more attractive ways to shape the buns here: http://wendyinkk.blogspot.sg/2009/08/steamed-sweet-potato-mantou.html and here: http://wendyinkk.blogspot.sg/2011/08/purple-sweet-potato-rose-mantou.html).
  • Place buns in steamer basket, on cheesecloth, about 1 inch apart.
  • Steam vigorously for 15-20 minutes.
  • (The buns can be cooked in the steamer basket of your rice cooker while the rice is cooking. They don't all fit at one time, so I freeze the the rest of the shaped, raw, buns on a flat baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag. I can pull them out a few at time to thaw and steam as needed.).

CHINESE STEAMED BUNS (MANTOU)



Chinese Steamed Buns (Mantou) image

I lived in China back in the early 90's and these were a breakfast favorite dipped in sweetened condensed milk. I thought they were like the bread version of marshmallows! I found them again at a Chinese restaurant this weekend, which sent will on a quest to find the recipe. I'm keeping it here at Zaar so I never lose it. Unfortunately, I'm not a low-carb diet right now. Bummer!
