Rock sugar water chestnut cake

Overview

How to cook Rock sugar water chestnut cake at home

Making water chestnut cake is not difficult at all. You can make it with zero knowledge. First, prepare the materials.
Use half of the water to boil the rock sugar and melt it. A friend asked if other sugar can be used? The answer is yes, but the color and taste are a little different. The water chestnut cake made with rock sugar is more translucent, so those who love sweet food should add an appropriate amount of sugar.
Melt the water chestnut powder with half of the water. It is best to sift the batter to remove impurities and make it more delicate.
After the rock sugar melts, add the water chestnuts and cook briefly.
After boiling the water, add 3/1 of the water chestnut powder slurry and stir until it becomes sticky. Be careful not to form lumps.
Then pour the cooked flour slurry into the raw flour slurry and stir evenly, being careful not to have any lumps.
Pour the batter into the mold, boil water over high heat, put it in a pot, turn to medium high heat, and steam for 30 minutes. The larger the mold, the longer the steaming time will be.
Freshly steamed water chestnut cake is not edible yet and needs to be cooled completely.
After cooling, the water chestnut cake will become translucent and can be eaten hot or cold.
