河马整形图解

first, divide dough into 55g each
面团分割成55克等份

divide into 2 small portions, one medium portion, and one big portion
面团再次分割成4份 ～ 两个小份、一份中份、另一份大份

roll medium portion into a flat oval shape, and shape the biggest portion into a horizontal oval shape
中份面团擀平成椭圆形、最大份面团手搓成横形椭圆形

place big portion over the flat dough. this becomes the hippo’s head
大份面团粘到扁面团上。这就形成了河马的脸部

flatten the two small portions of dough into round disc, and make a cut in the middle. then make a twist
两份小面团擀平、切开然后交错 （如上）

place the small portions behind the face
将小面团粘到河马脸部（底面）

place sesame seeds as eyes, and chocolate chips (use normal size, and not mini chocolate chips) as nostrils
粘上黑芝麻当眼睛、巧克力豆（用普通巧克力豆，并非迷你巧克力豆）做鼻孔

brush egg wash
刷上蛋液

use the back of a knife to score hippo’s mouth
用厨刀背部轻轻刮上河马嘴巴

and here you go.. we’re done
