Fat cake is a traditional delicacy and a popular cake food. The color of the finished product is white like jade, the hole is fine like a needle, the smell is fresh and fragrant, the food is sweet but not greasy, and it is rich in nutrition, especially suitable for the elderly and children.
Although there is a fermentation process involved in making a hair cake, it is relatively easy to make a hair cake compared to a steamed bun flower roll. Chopsticks stir, steam in the pot, the whole process does not touch the dough, only three steps, kitchen novices can easily do success. The ingredients of the evaporated cake are also simple, with ordinary flour and sugar as the main ingredients for household use. Of course, you can also use pumpkin, brown sugar, spinach, etc. to make different flavors and colors of hair cakes. It's more nutritious, it tastes better, and your family will like it more.
The hair cake made today only puts flour, sugar, and some red dates, which not only increases the appearance but also increases the nutrition. 2 bowls of flour and 1 handful of red dates, teach you to evaporate the cake, soft and sweet, better than steamed bread and flower rolls. You can eat three meals a day, and they are all delicious.
I'm going to try making a hair cake with other ingredients again in the near future, so you can try it too.
