In China, what most people like to eat most is pasta, especially some delicious food made of hair noodles, but it is undoubtedly a difficult problem for people who make hair noodles for the first time. How to make it? How long does it take? These are questions worth exploring, so let's take a look
How long does it usually take to make noodles
This problem depends on the activity and quantity of yeast, the water temperature during noodle making and the ambient temperature during fermentation. Yeast has good quality, strong activity and a little more. The water temperature during noodle making is high and the ambient temperature is also high (close to 40 ℃). The noodle making time is relatively shorter, otherwise it is longer.
Generally speaking, 30 to 45 minutes should be enough, or an hour at most. However, there are some dogmas. Practice believes that it is more accurate to judge by the volume of noodles. If the volume of noodles is more than double that when they are combined, and it smells like glutinous rice wine, it proves that the noodles have been made.
Dough method
1. For health, use half of the whole wheat flour, add half of the white flour, pour it into the basin, pull a pit in the middle with chopsticks, pour a small amount of water and put an appropriate amount of yeast powder. " See the instructions on the yeast packaging for the appropriate amount. At the beginning, you may have no experience, and there will be the problem of putting more and less. However, it doesn't matter. If you put less, the fermentation time will be longer, and if you put more, it won't affect anything. The key is to be sure to see the production date and shelf life of yeast. Yeast that has passed the shelf life can't afford to face.
2. While adding water, stir with chopsticks until the flour is flaked.
3. Knead the dough by hand until the 'three lights', surface light, basin light and hand light.
4. Put some water on the surface of the dough to moisturize it. 5. Cover and ferment in a warm place.
6. The fermentation time depends on the temperature, shorter in summer and longer in winter. When the dough volume increases to two or three times the original, it is OK.
7. To test whether the fermentation is successful, dip some flour with your fingers and poke holes in the dough. If the holes rebound immediately, it means that the fermentation is not enough and still needs to be fermented; If the surface of the dough collapses, it means that it is over fermented, and the dough will have sour taste. It can be neutralized with alkali, such as baking soda.
8. When you look inside the dough, there will be honeycomb holes.
How long does it take to make noodles? The above answer has been given. In fact, this time is not accurate. It depends on the volume of noodles. It only needs to be twice as large. The time of making noodles is also related to the temperature. It is faster in a hot room.
