Youtuotuo, a special snack in Northern Shaanxi

Introduction:

"There are many special snacks in Northern Shaanxi, but the most popular ones are huanghuang, Ruanmo, Yougao and Youtuo. They are all made of coarse cereals called millet. Millet is divided into soft millet and hard millet. The finished product made of soft millet flour is sticky and soft, which is generally used to make soft steamed bun, oil cake and oil lump; the taste of hard millet flour is dry and hard, which is generally used to make yellow. The authentic Youtuo must be made of millet flour. However, now there are few people who grow millet, and they can't eat the authentic dough oil outside. Most people use wheat flour instead of surimi flour, so the oil Tuotuo is naturally less soft, waxy and sweet that it should have I remember that in many places you Tuo is called sugar cake, but I'm still used to calling it you Tuo. The same food, the most cordial name to call out the feelings of it. I remember when I was a child, we had a three-day exchange meeting in the first quarter and the second quarter every year. What excites me most is all kinds of "delicious food" in the exchange meeting. Fried buns, fried buns, fried buns Think about what a time it was? Material life is really poor. In contrast, how happy our babies are! Don't be impatient when eating, or the sugar juice will scald your mouth! "

Production steps:

Step 1: add boiling water to the flour and stir with chopsticks until the flour is completely wet.

Step 2: knead the dough after the dough is cooled. If it sticks to the hand, you can apply some cooking oil on the hand before mixing the dough.

Step 3: take a small ball out and flatten it with two palms to form a circle.

Step 4: pack in a spoonful of sugar and put it away.

Step 5: after closing the mouth and pinching it tightly, use two palms to evenly press it into a round cake shape.

Step 6: heat the oil in the pan. When the oil is hot to 60%, put it into the prepared oil lump without stirring to prevent sugar leakage.

Step 7: after frying in medium heat for a short time, the oil lumps will float. Heat them in medium heat and turn them over to make the surface evenly colored.

Step 8: until the surface of the oil lump is light golden yellow, take out the oil, and eat it without scalding.
