Warm reminder;
1. Don't boil the beans until they are not hard, and mix the dough well before mixing it.
2. The surface should be moderately soft and soft, neither in a group nor too thin, just slightly softer than the surface of pancakes.
3. The sweetness of the cake can be added with sugar according to your preference, and you can also use brown sugar to make it. The steamed color is light coffee, which is beautiful and delicious. For example, when making with brown sugar, mix the brown sugar well in dry flour and rub it evenly with your hands to make it loose before blending with water.
4. Be sure to fully ferment the noodles before steaming. Before steaming, leave a few breathable gaps in the steamer drawer, and don't let the drawer cloth completely kill the batter. When steaming, the steaming effect will be good only when the steam is full, otherwise it will taste sticky and have a bad taste or an uncooked feeling.
