"Sugar Ear is one of the thirteen best snacks in old Beijing, also known as honey twist flower. It is named because the finished product resembles a human ear. ”
Ingredients
Flour (750g)
Maltose (625g)
Warm water (250ml)
Rapeseed oil (1l)
Take 500g of flour, 5g of yeast, 250ml of warm water to make fermented dough, add 2g of alkali noodles while kneading the dough and knead well. The fermented noodles are divided into two. Take 250g of flour and 125g of maltose to make the sugar dough. Roll out three pieces of dough to one finger thick and fold them into three layers, with the sugar noodles in the center and the fermentation noodles in the middle. Cut three fingers wide strips, press flat on one side, fold in half and set aside.
Take the long noodles to be used and cut two finger-wide squares, cut a knife from the folding place in the middle of each piece, do not cut off, and the distance is about 1.5cm from the opposite side.
Open the square folded in half, press the flat side into the middle to open the gap and roll it out in a circle. The other side folds in half to the midline, with a little force close to the middle slit, but not inaccessible. Try to leave as much space on both sides of the gap as possible. The finished shape is both a molded blank.
Heat 1l rapeseed oil in a frying pan to 50% heat, fry the golden brown oil under the embryo in turn, and soak it in 500g maltose while it is hot for about 1 minute. Remove to cool.
Tips:
To make a three-layer cake, apply water between each layer to increase the viscosity and prevent the layers from falling off. The size of the molded face can be adjusted to personal preference, but to the extent of operability. Maltose soaking time can be increased or decreased according to personal sweetness preferences, and the amount of inhalation is large for a long time, and the sugar taste is increased.
