香辣凉皮Spicy Liangpi

【Spicy Liangpi】
by MaomaoMom

Liangpi is a noodle-like Chinese dish made from wheat flour. It is a specialty dish originating from the province of Shaanxi, but has now spread to many other places in China, in particular the northern and central regions. I have made this dish for friends gathering, it disappeared very quickly. If you have a bread machine to knead the dough, it will be lot easier.

    借帖问个面包的事。
    做汤种面包,汤种做好了从冰箱里拿出来后,放入面包机之前需要室温回暖吗?如果需要的话,多长时间?
    谢谢!

    毛毛妈,
    今天原本打算学做你的凉皮,发现你用的是面包机和面。我通常只做一杯面粉的量。我的问题是:
    1)只做一杯面粉的话能用面包机和面吗?如果行的话,水是用1/3,103克吗?
    2)如果不能用面包机和面,用手和的话,水也是用1/3,103克吗?
    3)用手和的面也可以不沉淀直接蒸吗?
    谢谢!
