(1) Activate yeast: Put yeast and sugar into warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until foam appears on the surface.
(2) Mix flour: Mix flour and salt evenly, pour in yeast water, and stir while pouring.
(3) Knead the dough: Knead the dough with your hands or a kitchen machine for 10-15 minutes until the dough is smooth and not sticky.
(4) First fermentation: Put the dough into a basin, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and ferment in a warm place until it doubles in size (about 1 hour).
3. Judgment of fermentation status
| degree of fermentation | Judgment criteria | Remedies |
|---|---|---|
| Insufficient fermentation | No significant increase in volume | Extend fermentation time or increase ambient temperature |
| Moderate fermentation | The volume is 2 times larger, and it won’t shrink back when you poke the hole with your finger. | You can proceed directly to the next step |
| Over fermentation | The surface is sunken and has a sour smell. | Add a small amount of baking soda to neutralize |
4. Steaming techniques
(1) Shaping: Deflate the fermented dough, divide it into small uniform portions, and shape into balls.
(2) Secondary fermentation: Place the shaped steamed bun base on the steamer and let it sit for 15-20 minutes.

3. Frequently Asked Questions
| question | Reason | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| The bun collapsed | Excessive fermentation or sudden temperature drop during steaming | Control the fermentation time, turn off the heat and simmer for 3-5 minutes |
| Steamed buns are hard | The dough is not kneaded properly or there is insufficient moisture. | Knead the dough thoroughly and increase the amount of water appropriately |
| The buns are not fluffy | Yeast failure or fermentation temperature too low | Check yeast activity and increase fermentation temperature |
| Surface blistering | The dough is not completely deflated | Knead thoroughly to exhaust air |
4. Advanced skills
1.Refrigerated fermentation method: Place the mixed dough in the refrigerator to ferment for 8-12 hours, suitable for office workers.
