▸ RECIPE
Dough:
4 cups (575 grams) all-purpose flour, or 2 ½ cups (360 grams) all-purpose flour + 1 ½ cups (215 grams) cake flour*
½ tsp salt
1 cup (237 grams) boiling water
½ cup plus 2 tablespoon (148 grams) room temperature water
Additional flour for rolling/dusting
Paste:
1 cup thinly sliced scallions, green part only, about 6 medium scallions
½ cup plus 2 tablespoons (90 grams) all-purpose flour
½ cup neutral-tasting oil
1 ½ tsp ground Sichuan peppercorn (optional)
1 ½ tsp kosher salt
*To approximate the lower-protein of Chinese flour, I substitute 2 ½ cups American all-purpose flour and 1 ½ cups cake flour.
*I recommend using a food scale for accuracy, as scooping and weighing flour results in different measurements. Here, I scoop the dough directly from the bag with the cup measure and level off the top, so the total weight of 4 cups is about 575 grams flour.

    The people on the streets of Taipei say she is still eating pancakes made on that day ;) I considered subscribing and wanted to check for other videos and was surprised there is only one such high-quality video on the channel! I am slightly worried for the folks in Taiwan because some experts call the war in Ukraine the first battle for Taiwan.
