Recipes with 55g water
The recipe is very simple. The dough is kneaded to have a translucent texture like watery skin. After steaming, it will rebound quickly when pinched. It is chewy enough to pull out threads when bitten. The wheat aroma becomes stronger and stronger in the mouth. Don't worry if you don't have a watery face. Take a bite of this "reflective" chewy steamed bun. Who would want those "puffy" steamed buns that are supported by additives~ 😆
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.
No one can resist the temptation of chocolate cake, especially this Valrhona chocolate cake, which is irresistible. However, cocoa cake is a "baking nightmare" for many people - the two hurdles of fat and consistency alone are enough to make countless people shy away from this kind of cake that is easily "defeated". The cocoa butter it contains is like a "time bomb", which will disintegrate the bubbles in the meringue if you are not careful; and after the cocoa powder absorbs enough water, the batter becomes thick and sticky. If you use a little force when stirring, the meringue that has been whipped with great difficulty may lose its bubbles and collapse. If you want to bake a fluffy cocoa cake that does not shrink, the following method can make it easy for you to control it~
