looks good, I didn’t know cakes like this existed!
Jack Donegan Yup, there’s actually a lot of these “steamed” cakes in
Chinese cooking. If you’re interested, I did a steamed white sugar cake
earlier last yr. (pretty popular in Chinese bakeries)
I think this is the best method I’ve seen on YouTube. I usually dump rice
flour mixture into turnip that’s cooking in a wok but it gets hard to mix.
Really appreciate all the great vegan recipes. 🙂
Charles Tsai Thanks so much. Really appreciate the comment 🙂
