Love To Bake Chinese White Honeycomb Cake -Version Iv Bak Tong Goh- 36 Hours


Almost similar to Aunty Yochana’s version, but minus 42 hours as well as the rice fermentation stage. The vino yeast is added straight into the rice flour, which was the kuih starter dough (step 2) inwards Yochana’s version
Still, this volition select you lot 36 hours to complete. Even though it looks similar iii days, but it started belatedly at black on 24-hour interval ane as well as ended early 24-hour interval 3, altogether is 36 hours, less than 48. And recall if always something all of a abrupt came upward that makes you lot unable to practice the side past times side phase or steam it on time, only popular it into the refrigerator for non to a greater extent than than iii days. But, ane or two hours delay won’t brand much of a difference, should you lot require the ane or two hours extra.

It was the moving-picture exhibit that seduced me to essay this recipe. That was my ultimate result, as well as I achieved that inwards Aunty Yochana’s Version. And non many get got tried this recipe, non fifty-fifty those inwards Chinese. I tried googling it based on the recipe, as well as I solely constitute one on page 10 of google consequence . What to a greater extent than near this recipe inwards English…. None.. Well, every bit before said inwards the 1st version, I never saw whatsoever English linguistic communication Pak Thong Gou doing it amongst wheat starch, of class at that topographic point volition live none amongst this long version every bit well.



One weird affair near this recipe is the egg white. What is the constituent of the egg white? I don’t know. Anyway, when it was pose into the hot saccharide syrup, it’ll ready as well as it volition live sieved away later. So, why add together that? The respond mightiness live that the egg white protein, albumin, is used hither every bit a fining agent inwards vino making. After reading a few sites . near wine fining, it seems that it’s raw egg whites that is used as well as non cooked egg whites, thus why is this added inwards every bit cooked egg white?

Actually the original recipe called for yeast, but yeast to ferment for xviii hours minimum at tropical room temperature? Gosh, I don’t desire to brand limited rice vinegar. The recipe was inwards Chinese as well as the original source is unknown, they re-create as well as glue it everywhere on the internet, thus the “yeast” they mention, I’m non certain whether it’s the Chinese yeast or western baking yeast. If they telephone phone for ½ tsp of baking yeast to ferment that long.. I tin however “maybe” get got it, but two tsp??? H5N1 combat every bit good much, seriously.Maybe inwards cold China, it tin actually select that long, but non here. I tin brand the cake inwards solely two hours if I exercise two tsp, only similar whatsoever of those limited versions. So, I'll use Chinese vino yeast. Nevermind, I’m the guinea Sus scrofa here.

Results:
Good.
But non every bit expert every bit Aunty Yochana’s. Double decker honeycombs too. Due to the lesser H2O content than Aunty Yochana’s, this yields a slightly firmer cake. The higher starch content also made this chewier. But less crunchy than Aunty Yochana’s. Aunty Yochana’s version is actually the best, as well as the most fourth dimension consuming. Try this recipe if you lot desire to practice it using solely 36 hours compared to Yochana’s 78 hours.
Slightly inferior only. If Aunty Yochana’s version is really good, this is good. Rice flour as well as yeast version to me is .. I don’t desire to charge per unit of measurement it.

I’m non certain whether it’s due to wheat starch that pak thong koh tin teach double decker results , every bit I did it hither every bit good (although non every bit equal every bit those that I got amongst aunty yochana’s version, it’s thicker at the bottom this time), only similar the pic inwards Haochi123. But mine was a combat wavy on move on after beingness steamed, non every bit flat. Maybe I was using less sugar. Or perchance I was using high estrus to steam rather than medium high heat. Sometimes, saccharide practice play a role, but I actually can’t stand upward the amount of saccharide used inwards the original recipe. Try out the original amount if you lot similar things sweet, as well as delight permit me know.

And oh ya.. I’m going to essay out the 1st version again. I won’t ready it this time, as well as if I however teach double decker honeycombs, thus I confirm it’s the starch, but if it’s not, I approximate it’s due to the vino yeast.
