- In a large mixing bowl, combine water, salt, egg white, baking powder, baking soda and ammonium bicarbonate. - - Stir to combine well and dissolve all the leavening agents. - - Gradually, add in the flour while still mixing with your other hand or spatula.
- Combine the mixture well until it becomes a dough. You can do this by hand or a spatula. - - Once it becomes a dough, knead the dough inside the bowl until all the nooks and crannies of flour are kneaded into the dough, about 3 to 5 minutes. - - Transfer to a very lightly floured surface, continue kneading for another 3 to 5 minutes.
- The dough should be smooth and not sticky. It should pass the "window-pane" test. - - The hydration is 62.5%. The ratio of water to dough should be just right. But, if the dough is too dry, add in water, 1 TBSP at a time. If the dough is too sticky, add in flour, 1 TBSP at a time. - - Roll the dough into a ball.
- Lightly grease the mixing bowl and dough ball with oil. - - Cover with a damp lint-free kitchen towel. - - Set aside for 1 hour. - - Grease working surface lightly with oil.
- Roll the dough into a rectangle with about 1/8 inch thickness. - - Slice the rectangle into half lengthwise. - - Slice into 1 inch thick ribbons. - - You should get 28 ribbons.
- Stack 1 ribbon onto another ribbon which makes 14 stacked ribbons. - - Slice the stacked ribbons into halves. - - You should end up with 28 small stacked ribbons.
- Cover with the damp lint-free kitchen towel. - - Set aside for 15 mins. - - Prepare a dutch oven, over medium-high heat with at least 2 inches of oil. - - To check the temperature, insert a wooden chopstick into the oil. If bubbles form around the chopstick, the oil is ready for deep frying.
- Cover the rest of the dough when working with 1. The will prevent the rest of the dough from drying out.* - - Press a chopstick in the center of the stacked ribbon gently lengthwise to create a sort of groove. - - Gently pinch both ends and stretch.
- Just before dropping into the oil, give the dough another stretch. - - Be very careful as the oil is super hot. - - The dough will puff up immediately.
- Once the bottom is golden brown, flip. - - Deep fried until both sides are golden brown. - - Remove from heat and set aside on a wire cooling rack or a plate lined with kitchen paper to drain off excess oil.
- Repeat the process for the remaining dough. - - Serve with some Gianduja immediately. - - You can dust the You Tiao with some icing sugar and cinnamon powder. I prefer mine plain.
