How to make

  1. Prepare. Line a mold with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 180°C (360°F).
  2. 1. Put an ingredient (A) in a bowl, cover with hot water, and heat until honey softens.
  3. 2. Put eggs and sugar in another bowl and whisk with a hand mixer while covering it with hot water. When the sugar dissolves, remove it from the hot water. Whisk until a ribbon-like streak forms when dripping from the top.
  4. 3. Sift in powdered ingredients and mix quickly with a whisk.
  5. 4. Add Step 1 and mix with a whisk.
  6. 5. Pour into the mold from a slightly higher position, move the long chopsticks up, down, left, and right to remove air, and bake in the oven at 180°C (360°F) for 10 minutes.
  7. 6. Lower the oven temperature to 160°C (320°F) and bake for 30 minutes until a bamboo skewer is inserted into the mold and the dough does not stick. Remove from the mold, wrap in plastic wrap, cool it, and it is ready.

Tips for cooking

This recipe uses honey. Please be careful not to let children below the age of 1 (infants) consume them. We use 100% rice flour without added sugar or flour. Please make sure to preheat the oven before baking. If the oven does not have a preheating function, set the temperature and heat for 10 minutes before baking. The strength of the heat may vary depending on the type of oven and the period of use. Please make sure to follow the recipe as a guide but adjust the baking time as needed. If it browns too fast, cover it with aluminum foil.
