To get started with this recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can cook sourdough bao using 5 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Sourdough Bao:
- Prepare 80 g Sourdough starter (quite runny, straight from fridge)
- Take 140 g All purpose flour
- Make ready 50 ml water
- Make ready 1 tbsp sunflower, sesame or coconut oil
- Make ready 1 tsp sugar
Steps to make Sourdough Bao:
- In the morning, dissolve the starter in the water and mix in all the other ingredients. Knead just enough to make a dryish dough. Cover with clingfilm and leave to rise at room temp
- Throughout the morning, do a cycle of folds every hour or so. Don't let it get in the way of life though. Missing a few folds won't hurt.
- 4 hours before dinner, the dough should have doubled in size. Cut the dough into 4 pieces, flatten and shape into buns (do that thing where you stick baking parchment inside so that the two halves don't stick together). Place on baking parchment. I like to put them inside a steamer at this point so that they are ready to go at dinner time.
- Put steamer in the oven with the light on (in my oven this gives a temperature of about 40-50C). Leave until dinner time. Don't be afraid to prove the hell out of the buns. They should really be big and puffy by the end of this step.
- Buns should be nice and puffed up. Now add cold water to the steamer and put it over a medium heat. When the water starts boiling, start the timer. After 15 or 20 mins they are done!
