Steps to make Shandong Lotus Seed Fortune Cake

1. Add yeast to flour.
2. Gradually add water to make a slightly hard dough, and place it in a bowl with a lid to ferment.
3. The dough ferments into a honeycomb shape, with a volume three times that of the original dough.
4. Sprinkle dry flour on the fermented dough and continue kneading, allowing the dough to absorb some flour and make the dough harder. (Rub for more time, the steamed buns will be very white) After kneading, divide them into 70g pieces and knead them round to relax for a few minutes.
5. Brush the clip with oil.
6. Take a piece of dough and knead it into a cylindrical shape, then place it in a clamp and flatten it with your palm until the dough and clamp are fully in contact.
7. Turn the clip upside down and make a strong tap on the cutting board (preferably one), and the cake will come out.
8. Brush a thin layer of oil on the steaming pot, and place the cakes on top of it with a larger distance to prevent them from sticking due to thermal expansion. After steaming for 25 minutes at SAIC, turn off the heat and steam for 3 minutes before removing from the pot.
