Bak Tong Go (白糖糕)
Serves 1
Directions
- 1Let's make Bak Tong Gou (白糖糕)
- 2One tip is to wrap a thin tea towel around the lid of your steamer to prevent condensation from dripping back onto the dish, because this might stop your cake from rising fully and turn it mushy.
Ingredients
- 250 g rice flour
- 150 ml water
- 150 g sugar
- 370 ml water
- 5 g instant yeast
Equipment

Tips
- Let the batter cool down before adding in the yeast, otherwise you’ll kill the yeast and the batter wouldn’t ferment. If you are in a rush, soak the mixing bowl with the batter in cold water to help the mixture cool down quicker.
- Wrap a thin tea towel on the lid of your steamer to prevent condensation from dripping back onto the dish. This will stop the cake from rising fully and turn it mushy.
- Once the cake is done, brush the top with some oil so it doesn’t become dry.
- Let the cake cool completely before slicing, otherwise, it’ll stick on your knife and you won’t get a clean cut.
