Detailed Steps for Cooking Walnut and Black Sesame Sugar Bun
Crush the walnuts in a sealed bag.
In a bowl, mix the crushed walnuts, black sesame powder, granulated sugar, and flour together.
Stir until well combined to make the sugar filling. Set aside.
In warm water (242g), add yeast (5g), granulated sugar (10g), and baking soda (1g). Mix well. Add flour (500g) and knead into a smooth dough (knead by hand for more than 100 times).
Let the dough rise until it doubles in size. (In cold weather, put it in a steamer at around 50 degrees Celsius to ferment.)
After the dough has risen, punch it down (knead it more than 100 times), take an appropriate amount of dough, and flatten it.
You can also use a rolling pin to roll it thin and wrap it around the sugar filling.
Wrap the bun up.
Let it rise until it doubles in size.
Steam over high heat for 15 minutes and then simmer for 5 minutes.
