Tang Zhong

Ingredients: (able to make 120g Tang Zhong) 

25g Bread Flour
125ml Water(could be replaced by milk, juice or 50/50 water and milk)

Method:

1. Mix flour and water in a small saucepan until without any lumps. 

2. Cook over medium low heat, stirring consistently with a egg whisk or wooden spoon to prevent the mixture from burning while cooking.

3. The mixture will thicken up (takes about less than 2 minutes) while cooking, so once you see “lines” appear in the mixture or it starts to form a dough. It is done.

4. Transfer the cooked dough into a clean bowl and cover with a cling wrap sticking onto the surface to prevent it from drying up. 

5. Cool it completely before use. (I have tried using it while lukewarm and it works well too)
