Purple yam steamed cake recipe
First, cut 3 small purple yam pieces into small blocks and sprinkle a lot of white sugar on them. 2. Steam until cooked. 3. Prepare rice flour and starch flour, as well as a measuring cup and milk. 4. Mix 2 cups of starch flour with 1 cup of rice flour in a large bowl. 5. While the purple yam is still hot, use a spoon to mash it and add it to the dry powder, stirring until well combined. Add milk in moderation, depending on the humidity. 6. The original recipe requires the humidity of all mixed powders to be dry, and the batter should not crumble when squeezed. 7. Use your hands to break up the large powder lumps. 8. Sift. This is a test of patience! 9. After sifting, the powder should be fluffy and airy. Do not pack it down suddenly! Purple yam steamed cake needs to be as fluffy as possible; otherwise, all your efforts will be wasted. 10. Gently scoop the powder into the mold. Level the surface. Bring water to a boil, steam for 20 minutes, and then steam for 5 minutes. 11. The steamed cake shrank by a large amount, which is the reason for the dryness and fluffiness of the powder. 12. Because it was too wet, sifting was difficult. After the first pass of sifting, I also steamed the remaining powder, which is the original recipe of using a mixer to crush the purple yam. It’s a rough method, but doesn’t affect the taste, and doesn’t shrink during steaming. 13. This is a comparison of sifting and non-sifting after steaming. The top is after sifting, it has a delicate and chewy texture, and you'll want to eat another piece after eating it. The bottom image is not sifting, but it's still chewy and sweet. You can bite big pieces! That's great.
