Method
- Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the water, let stand for 5 minutes until foamy, then mix into the flour to form a smooth dough; knead for 5 minutes and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until doubled.
- Roll the risen dough out into a thin rectangle, brush with the sesame oil, and sprinkle evenly with the chopped scallion and salt.
