way of making
- Let’s begin by making the “golden bean paste” that gently envelops the autumn flavors. The key here is to chop the chestnut nectar coarsely and leave the texture. Cut dried persimmons into small cubes. Put the white bean paste and mirin in a bowl and mix well until smooth, then add the chopped chestnuts and dried persimmons and mix carefully to blend the autumn colors. Now divide the mixture into 10 equal portions and roll them out. Feel as if you are preparing a small jewel.
- Next, work on the brown sugar dough, which has a fluffy, sticky texture. In a deep bowl, combine the flour, rice flour, and baking powder, and sift them into the bowl so that they are aerated. This is the secret to making the dough light.
- In a separate bowl, mix the brown sugar with the milk.This is the secret to good taste!Mix thoroughly until the brown sugar is completely dissolved, so the entire dough is even, deep color and that savory flavor. Add the salad oil and mix it in further. The oil is the magic drop that makes the dough moist and smooth.
- Add the brown sugar solution you just made to the bowl of flour, a little at a time, as if whispering, and mix gently with a rubber spatula.Tips for avoiding failureDo not over-knead! Stop mixing when it is no longer powdery. The ideal dough should melt softly when you touch it.
- Now comes the climax! Divide the dough into 10 equal portions and roll each out into a thin round with the palm of your hand. Gently place the prepared golden bean paste in the center of the dough and carefully close it up as if you were wrapping up a precious treasure. Once the bottom is flattened out, place them one by one on a cookie sheet cut into approximately 7 cm squares.
- Prepare the steamer. Set the steamer to high heat, and when the steam starts to rise, place the manju in the steamer. Wrap a cloth around the lid to prevent water droplets from falling on the buns and to keep the surface glossy and beautiful. From here, wait patiently for 10 to 12 minutes for the autumn bounty to puff up.
- The moment you open the lid of the steamer, the sensation is truly bliss! The freshly steamed manju is soft and fluffy, just like a baby’s skin. If you eat it while it is still warm, the harmony of the gentle aroma of brown sugar, melted persimmon, and chestnuts will surely satisfy all your senses.
Recipe Points
We will give you the best tips on how to make the “golden steamed buns with persimmon and chestnuts in the style of Semi Onsen”.
- Dough is not over-kneaded!When mixing the flour and brown sugar solution, if the mixture is kneaded too much, gluten will form, resulting in a hard finish. The first step toward a fluffy, glutinous texture is to stop mixing when there is a slight powdery residue.
- Dissolve brown sugar completely!If brown sugar grains remain in the dough, the color will be uneven and the uniformity of flavor will be compromised. By dissolving them thoroughly when mixing with milk, you can enjoy a deep brown sugar flavor everywhere you eat.
- Dried persimmons for bean paste are cut into small pieces!Dried persimmons are cut into smaller pieces to make them more palatable and to create a sense of unity with the chestnut bean paste. It also creates a luxurious taste with the gentle sweetness and texture of persimmon no matter where you eat the manju.
- Steaming time is strictly observed!If steamed too long, the dough will be dry and lose its fluffiness. Aim for 10-12 minutes on high heat. If a bamboo skewer sticks to the dough and no raw dough sticks to the skewer, it is OK.
