Can you make the fluffiest scallion pancakes without eggs? Absolutely, with these easy steps.
- Combine two cups of all-purpose flour with one teaspoon of salt. While warming the mixture, I gradually introduce the liquid, simultaneously combining the ingredients with a pair of lengthy chopsticks that I find most effective for this step. After incorporating all the warm water, work the dough within the bowl for a duration of approximately 2-3 minutes, ensuring it becomes silky and even in texture – avoid overworking. As you knead, make a point to remove any lingering flour residue that may have accumulated on the inside of the bowl during the initial mixing process. Brush the top of the dough lightly with vegetable oil to prevent drying, then refrigerate it for at least 45 minutes or ideally overnight.
- In a heat-safe bowl, combine the chopped scallions, all-purpose flour, and white pepper to create a harmonious blend of flavors and textures. Heat the vegetable oil in a small saucepan or shallow pan to a gentle simmer. As you swiftly pour the oil over the scallions, they will instantaneously begin to sizzle with a lively intensity. Combine ingredients until they are fully incorporated and a consistent texture is achieved.
- Form the dough into four equal pieces. Take one portion of dough, shape it into a long, thin cylinder. If the dough starts sticking to your work surface, lightly coat the area with some oil to prevent it from adhering. I typically strive for a thickness equivalent to that of a coin. With the dough rolled out, apply 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil paste evenly distributed using a brush. After evenly spreading the oil paste, gently fold the top one-third downwards, followed by the bottom third, before finally folding the pastry in half. At this stage, you will obtain a rectangular shape of considerable length. Gently grasp both ends and pull them outward along the work surface, much like tenderly stretching the delicate strands of freshly made Biang Biang Noodles.
- Cut, untangle, and re-form. Slice the long rectangular sheet of dough into thin, pasta-inspired strands. Carefully gathering each strand, I slowly work to untangle the knotted mess, then methodically stack them precisely atop one another, creating a harmonious, organized whole. After gathering the unknotted fibres, form a compact spiral shape from beginning to end, securing the last segment under its counterpart. Roll out the remaining dough to a thickness of about 1/8 inch.
- Flatten the Pancakes. Prior to cooking your pancakes, allow them to rest for a minimum of 15 minutes to ensure optimal fluffiness and texture. Once you’ve allowed them to rest sufficiently, gently flatten each pancake to a thickness of approximately 0.5 to 1 centimeter using either your fingertips or a rolling pin.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat, adding a small amount of oil to prevent sticking. Gently position a flat pancake within the pan. With the lid securely in place, adjust the heat to a gentle simmer. Cover the pancakes and cook for approximately four minutes, or until the surface transforms colour, indicating a subtle cooking and hydration process.
- Now, lift off the lid, flip the pancake over, and adjust the burner to maximum heat. Crisp up the food to a golden hue on both sides. Cooking time for this step is entirely at your discretion; if you prefer extra-crispy pancakes, extend the cooking duration for a satisfyingly crunchy finish.
- As the cooking process nears completion, grasp two spatulas firmly and gently coax the pancake apart, allowing all its delicate layers to unfold with ease. Carefully separate the pancake’s layers by applying a gentle pressure, allowing the delicate structure to release and reassemble without disintegrating entirely.
