棗皇糕 Double Dates Cake



The Chinese New Year of Rooster 2017 is near soon, I have an idea to make a new recipe for me - red date and south date!  With my experiment of a few recipes that I searched online, hereunder is my favourite taste - so yummy, chewy and QQ :)

Recipe:  (6-7" rectangle/round pan)
180g                  red dates pitted
70g                    south jujube pitted
1000g                water

160g                  dark brown sugar增城蔗糖

160g                  tapioca (product from Thailand)
50g                    glutinous rice flour
50g                    rice flour
1/2 tsp               salt

Cooking Method:  steam

Procedure:
1)  Wash the red/south dates and boil with water on high flame until 100c degree, then turn to low/medium flame for 30 mins,off heat; strain the dates water 2 to 3 times until have the clear dates water(use the spoon to press the juices out);

2)  Boil the dates water/brown sugar on low heat (just let the sugar melted),
let it cool down and take 530-560g dates sweet water out, set aside;

3)  Brush the pan with oil, on the other hand set the steamer on 
high heat until the water is boiled 100c;  set aside;

4)  Mix and sift all dry ingredients in a big mix bowl, pour the luke warm dates
sweet water in 2 additions, stir well until smooth (the batter is thin which is ok),
pour the batter into the pan, steam for 40-50mins (depends on your cake size),
put a stick into the cake if there is no lumps come out, it's done!

5)  Let it cool down at least one hour before to pull out the pan, enjoy!

6)  It can keep for a week in the fridge, in the room temperature for 1-2 days.

**It's so delicious to steam again to eat once it kept in the fridge.




2017年農曆新年即將到來,我有一個想法,為我做一個新的食譜 - 紅棗和南棗!我已實驗過幾個食譜了,在網上搜索,下面是我最喜歡的味道 - 非常美味,咀嚼起來QQ 彈彈的:)

食譜:(6-7“長方形/圓盤)
180g                紅棗去核
70g                  南棗去核
1000g              水

160g                增成蔗糖

160g                木薯粉(來自泰國的產品)
50g                  糯米粉
50g                  米粉
1/2茶匙            鹽

烹飪方法:蒸


做法:
1)洗滌紅/南棗,在高火下用水煮沸直到100℃,然後改用低/中火煮30分鐘; 關火蓋住焗 30-45分鍾,用篩過瀘棗糖水2至3次(用匙壓出汁),直到有清澈棗糖水;

2)用低火煮棗水/紅糖(只是讓糖融化),讓它冷卻下來,並取出530-560g棗水待用;

3)把模用油掃過,另一方面用大火煮熱蒸鍋直到水煮沸100c待用;

4)在一個大混合碗中混合和篩過所有乾粉,將棗糖水分2次添加~攪拌均勻,直到光滑(麵糊是薄的),把麵糊倒入模中,蒸40-50分鐘(視乎你的模大小啊)把一根棍子放進糕,如果沒有濕塊出來,就熟了!

5)讓它冷卻至少一個小時,然後出模,享用吧!它可以在冰箱裡保存一個星期,在室溫下1-2天。

**一旦它保存在雪櫃裡,翻熱吃最好是蒸的~仍很軟彈QQ。
