Wendi started with mixing the ingredients for the pau dough & knead till it's smooth. I usually make use of my KitchenAid dough beater to knead. She showed us to apply the correct strength cos I always have aching hands when I do manual kneading.
While waiting for that dough to proof, Wendi brought out another ready sample for us to practise. All had a good laugh when someone brought out a big heavy metal rolling pin. Everyone had a fun time rolling the skin & folded with vegetable filling. Well, practise makes perfect! After a few try, our pleats are neater & resemblance the popular `xiao long pau'. When done with the steaming, we enjoyed eating the hot & yummy buns.
Wendi is very patient in repeating the folding steps to each & every one of us. She readily shares her knowledge & showed us 2 other pleats for dumpling. Participants also share their skills on pleating curry puff. Will be engaging Wendi to do more cooking demo in the estate.
Unfortunately except for the above photo, I had accidentally deleted the rest of the photographs from the memory card. There is no way I could retrieve or re-take them. So sad. :-(
Engaged the ex-YTPS PSG Wendi to do the Steam Vegetable Bun Demo in the estate when I attended her session at YT Z9 RC abt 2 mths ago. 23 residents came for the hands-on session held in Function Room.
