I’m afraid this one won’t work in the air fryer.

I’ve never tried refrigerate this one for two days but I think it should work.

I made some dough yesterday, and it’s been in the fridge but I don’t have time to make it today. Is it alright to leave it in the fridge and make them tommorow?

Yeah the dough is left quite wet intentionally so the you tiao texture will be fluffier after frying. That being said, the dough might be borderline too wet depending on the brand of flour you use. Glad to hear it still worked with the extra flour.

Is it meant to be wet and sticky? Or what went wrong? I tried second thinking perhaps I made a mistake first time round but I got the same sticky and wet dough. Nevertheless, with the additional flour, I still managed to make yummy chewy youtiao.

I tried to do it but I failed with that dough. I think quantities in grams are incorrect compared to “cups”. For example (6 units): 1,5 cup of flour and 0,5 (aprox) cup of water (so, x3 times) is not 100 gr of flour and 56 of water (less than x2)

These turned out great, thank you, Maggie! It did take time but largely unattended. I didn’t see any significant “rise” in either of the two resting stages, but they did indeed puff up nicely when fried. Another great recipe, will share and make this again.

Thanks for noticing it! I just added the salt to the instructions. Re your question, the water helps activate the baking soda and baking powder so I wouldn’t mix it with the salt and eggs.

Have pinned a few recipes to try out this weekend, I do have 1 comment and 1 question. The 1-1/4 tsp of salt on the ingredients list is not mention in your dough prepping . Question…can I combine H2O ,B/P, B/S, salt n egg white together…or do I need to separately mix them in the flour?
