    30g brown sugar
  • ·
    15g cooked flour
  • ·
    2g osmanthus
  • ·
    50g flour

Additional Ingredients

  • ·
    5ml warm water
  • ·
    20ml clear water
  • ·
    3g yeast
  • ·
    2g baking powder

    10g white sugar

DIRECTIONS

Step 1

Prepare filling ingredients: Weigh 30 grams of brown sugar, 15 grams of cooked flour and 2 grams of osmanthus respectively and set aside.

Step 2

Make brown sugar filling: Pour brown sugar, cooked flour and osmanthus into a bowl and stir evenly with a spoon until a uniformly textured filling is formed and set aside.

Step 3

Dissolve yeast: Put 3 grams of yeast into 5 milliliters of warm water and stir gently with chopsticks to completely dissolve the yeast in warm water to form a yeast solution.

Step 4

Mix dry ingredients: Pour 50 grams of flour, 2 grams of baking powder and 10 grams of white sugar into a large bowl and stir evenly with chopsticks or a mixer to ensure that all dry ingredients are fully mixed.

Step 5

Prepare dough: Slowly pour the yeast solution into the mixed dry ingredients. At the same time, add 20 milliliters of clear water. Stir with chopsticks while pouring until it forms a flocculent state.

Step 6

Divide the dough: Take out the fermented dough and place it on the cutting board. Gently knead to release air. Then roll it into a long strip and evenly divide it into small dough pieces of about 1-2 centimeters each with a knife.

Step 7

Roll out the dough skin: Roll each small dough piece into a round dough skin with a thicker middle and thinner edges using a rolling pin. The thickness is about 3-5 millimeters.

Step 8

Wrap and shape: Take a piece of dough skin, put about three small spoonfuls of brown sugar filling on it, and then pinch the edges of the dough skin in turn to form a triangle. The pinched part should be tight to prevent the filling from leaking out.

Step 9

Steam: Put the raw sugar triangles wrapped with filling into a steamer, leaving a certain gap between each. Add an appropriate amount of water to the steamer. After boiling vigorously, put the steamer in and turn to medium heat and steam for 25 minutes.

Step 10

Completion: After steaming, open the lid and take it out carefully. In this way, the delicious sugar triangle is completed.
