Mung bean cake with sesame oil bean paste

Overview

I have always missed my mother’s homemade mung bean cake when I was a child. The preparation at that time was very simple. A pound of mung beans cost a few cents to process into mung bean noodles, then add a little saccharin water, mix well, put it on a drawer cloth, and steam it over high heat. The mung bean cake at that time was so natural that it was so dry that the noodles fell off. But in that era of material scarcity, it was very satisfying to eat this. Nowadays, there are many kinds of mung bean cakes, peeled or unpeeled, with various fillings you like, including honey and sugar. You can add more or less according to your own preferences. It can be said that you have everything. I especially like this mung bean cake made directly from mung bean flour, which is simpler and more convenient. I like sesame oil, so I used sesame oil to make mung bean cakes, which were very popular as gifts for relatives and friends.
