Description
Mantou Low-Gluten Wheat Flour for Buns - 1 kg
This wheat flour is a finely milled flour type with low gluten content, specially produced for making Asian-style steamed buns, including mantou, bánh bao, and salapao. The flour differs from regular wheat flour due to its special milling, which gives the dough a softer and more pliable consistency, essential for achieving the characteristic soft and slightly chewy result in steamed buns. The package also includes a yeast sachet, so you are ready to start baking immediately. For preparation, dissolve sugar and yeast in water, then mix the mixture with the flour until a uniform dough is formed. The dough should then proof for approximately 20 minutes at room temperature, and the proofing time should be adjusted depending on whether the temperature is above or below 28 degrees Celsius. Once proofed, roll out the dough with a rolling pin into a flat, elongated shape, roll it into a cylinder, and cut into individual bun pieces. Let the buns proof for a further 30 to 40 minutes until they are soft and slightly expanded. Finally, steam the buns in a steamer for 12 to 15 minutes once the water boils. The flour can also be used for making cakes, cookies, and other baked goods that require a finely milled flour type. The texture of the finished product is characteristically soft and slightly chewy, making it a popular choice for Asian home baking. The flour is best stored cool and dry to maintain its quality. The package weighs 1 kg net and is suitable for both experienced bakers and beginners who wish to experiment with Asian baking at home. The product contains wheat gluten and is therefore not suitable for individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease.
