Steamed millet cake ★ invigorating the spleen and nourishing the stomach
(99234 views)
It's easier to make instant cakes in pasta. If you don't want to knead the dough, you can mix the dough into a paste. The success rate is high and it's labor-saving. Considering the limited tools of each hemp, we did not use millet flour to make this time (rice flour is used when there is millet flour). Instead, we used the method of rice pulp. The beating machine also has a wall breaking machine. Instead, we used the most common juice machine. After practice, there is no problem in rolling up our feet. So mothers can do it.

Cooking Steps
Step1:Wash the millet and soak it in water for 1 night. When I do it, I weigh 80g millet. But I still have one throw left to weigh the rice pulp.
Step2:Add a small amount of clear water to the soaked millet and put it into the blender to mix it into millet slurry (I use the machine for mixing juice). Mix it several times and make it as thin as possible. The effect is better if the wall breaking machine is used.
Step3:Weigh 100g millet milk and prepare other ingredients. Just a little warm water. The water temperature should not be too hot. You can try it with your fingers. A little temperature is OK.
Step4:Pour the yeast into warm water. Stir well. Then let stand for 510 minutes. Let the yeast live.
Step5:Pour the sugar into the rice paste. Stir and stir. Let the sugar dissolve.
Step6:Slowly pour the rice paste into the flour bowl.
Step7:First use chopsticks to stir. Stir to make dough.
Step8:Pour in yeast water. Continue mixing with chopsticks.
Step9:Then add water slowly. Be sure to add it slowly. Stir with a scraper while adding. Look at the viscosity of the dough.
Step10:Finally, stir into a sticky, slightly thicker dough.
Step11:Find a mold. My 6-inch round mold. Then brush a layer of oil with a brush. It's easy to demould.
Step12:Throw in the dough. Then use a scraper to finish it. Spread the mold. Dip a little water on the surface of the scraper. Smooth the dough surface (this picture is not even... I forgot to take it after scraping
Step13:Then find a wet cloth or plastic wrap and cover the mold. It's cold in winter. I put it in the oven. Use the fermentation function of the oven. Or put it in the steamer for fermentation. If the steamer ferments, heat the water a little (not too hot). Then put the mould in.
Step14:Ferment it to twice the size. Don't overdo it, or it will taste sour.
Step15:Then cut the dried fruit and put it on it. It's just as beautiful as it is. Dried blueberries and cranberries I use.
Step16:Put enough water in the steamer. Steam over high heat for 3035 minutes. Put a plate on the surface. This way, the water vapor will not easily affect the surface of the cake. After the final steaming, stew for 5 minutes and then uncover. Otherwise, the cake will collapse easily.
Step17:The beautiful cake is finishe
Cooking tips:The amount of water should be controlled by the mothers themselves. Because the water absorption of flour is different. The concentration of millet pulp will be different for everyone. And the amount of yeast water is also different. So this time, there is no regulation on the amount of water. Pay attention. The water should be added slowly when the dough is alive. After steaming, it must be simmered for more than 5 minutes. Otherwise, the cake will collapse due to the large temperature difference between inside and outside. Before, I met with my mother who asked me that the steamed cake was a little sticky. As Lei Feng, I summed up my experience for you - ① you must steam the cake thoroughly with a big fire. The cake that can't be steamed completely will be sticky. It will also be sticky if the fire is not enough. It usually takes about 30 minutes to steam in high fire. If you're afraid that you can't handle it well, you can steam a little more. ② The steamed cake should not be demoulded in a hurry. It is better to wait for a little cooling before taking it off. Because the cake is still a little sticky. The watch is too anxious. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
