Recipes with 5g dry yeast

Paoba (rice cake), a Sichuan and Chongqing specialty snack

Sichuan and Chongqing Paoba is a local specialty in the streets and alleys. When the steamer is opened, white steam wrapped in rice fragrance fills the whole street. It is soft when eaten hot, with fine pores like a sponge full of water. The rice fragrance is mixed with a slight sourness, and the aftertaste is sweet. After cooling thoroughly, it has a firm and chewy texture, the sourness is clearer, and the sweet aftertaste is also prominent. It is just right~ Compared with the sweetness and firmness of Lunjiao cake and white sugar cake, I personally still like the sweetness and softness of Paoba~

Super Soft Cheese Sausage Buns (Cream Version)

I love making high-hydration doughs, especially for bread—they turn out as soft as little lambs. (I used 625g of flour to make 14 buns.) The aroma while baking is impossible to hide; neighbors often come knocking to ask when the bread will be ready. (Next time, I’ll try a butter version.) I prefer savory bread, so I use less sugar and a bit more salt.

Savory pork floss salad soft buns

pork floss, chives, and cheese. Just looking at them reveals how delicious they'll taste. When you're in a hurry in the morning, grabbing one is super convenient. The bread is soft, and with one bite, the salty flavor of the pork floss, the crispy chives, and the creamy cheese all explode in your mouth. The more you chew, the more delicious it becomes. It's truly fragrant, and there's no need to bother with the right combination. Finish one and keep another in your pocket for the day—a perfect breakfast and afternoon tea for a working person, right? 😀

Coconut Milk Cloud Buns

Break one open, and the soft, stringy texture stretches out. The coconut milk hidden in the cracks oozes out, fragrant and moist, the aroma of coconut mixed with the aroma of milk piercing my nose. A bite reveals the bread is soft as cotton, the sweetness of coconut milk wrapped around the mellow aroma of wheat, a perfect sweetness that becomes more and more addictive with every chew. I've been trying to manage my weight lately, but with the smell and feel of this softness, how could I resist? So, I grabbed one, then another (with a silly grin), watching my family happily scramble for it. Any worries about losing weight faded away with the coconut aroma—after all, the carb-filled treats that the whole family can gather around to grab aren't always available. Losing weight? I'll worry about it after I finish this plate!
