Summing up the experience of failure, you must look at:

1. Why is the dry powder in the finished product not ripe?

Water and flour are not evenly mixed, and insufficient kneading leads to no moisture absorption of rice flour.

The sieving time is too long, especially in winter, the dry water evaporates quickly.

There is no hollow and breathable container to block the rise of water vapor.

The drawer cloth must be breathable, and the gauze in the special secret room cannot be used.

2. Why does the paste on the surface or bottom of the finished product collapse?

You must cover the container when steaming the cake. If there is no cover, you can put wet gauze on it, or put chopsticks on the container and buckle the plate.

Don't have too much water in the pot when steaming the cake. It may overflow into the cake after boiling. It is recommended to reach half a pot.

It was not taken out immediately after steaming, which caused the water droplets gathered on the lid to enter the cake.

3. Why is the finished product particularly strong and not fluffy?

Do not press the sieved powder by hand, and keep it fluffy.

After the powder is put into the container, it must be gently scraped flat, and it should be light when placed in the middle interlayer, and it should not be pressed down hard. If the sandwich contains thick ingredients such as bean paste, you can roll it flat and cut it in advance before gently putting it in.

If the steaming time is not enough, the bigger the cake, the longer it will take.

List of ingredients: appropriate amount of dried osmanthus, milk150g, red dates140g, sticky rice flour 200g and glutinous rice flour 80g.

Remove the core from the red dates, put them in a pot and cook for 10 minutes, then take them out.

Put it in a cooking machine and beat it into jujube paste.

Put it in a paper bag for use.

Mix glutinous rice flour and sticky rice flour evenly in a bowl.

Add a small amount of milk several times, add the edge and rub it into wet small pieces without dry powder by hand.

Rub your hands together and break the big particles into small pieces.

Prepare a coarse mesh drying net and sieve it with the help of a silicone scraper or hand.

Spread wet gauze in the steamer, add half of the powder first, and scrape it gently with a scraper. Never press hard.

Evenly squeezed into jujube paste.

Gently scrape it flat with a scraper.

Add the remaining powder and scrape it gently with a scraper.

Before steaming, cut it into appropriate sizes with a knife.

The excess gauze lightly covers the surface.

Cover the steamer, add cold water of half water level into the steamer, and then put it in.

Steam in cold water for 40 minutes, then turn off the fire and take it out.

Sprinkle dried osmanthus while it is hot, and stimulate the fragrance of osmanthus with hot air.
