Homemade mung bean cake
In the past, my mother would make this steamed cake during the seventh month of the lunar calendar, but she used rice flour or other flour. Now I can think about it. Try the whole mung bean flour. It just happens that Xiao Cai has been getting angry recently, and mung beans can also eliminate the fire and detoxify. I didn't ask my mother how she did it, but referring to the ratio online, I found a ratio myself.

1. Personally, I think this sugar ratio is sweet enough.
2. It breaks easily when hot, but won't after cooling down.
3. The lines are scored for easier serving, but you can also make other patterns.
4. Poke it with a chopstick or pick up a little to test; if it doesn't stick to the chopstick or your teeth, it is done.
5. Adding some peanut powder or sesame powder should taste even better, but I haven't tried it yet.
