Hi Iwen, may I know if I can use the same recipe to make a 6" huat kueh instead of cupcakes? Like to make this for CNY to give my boss. Please advise. Thank you and Happy New Year
Need to see your photo to know, did you test your baking powder to see whether it is still active? Please watch my youtiao video to find out how to test your baking powder no matter you just bought or how ya. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mVM45eekkDU.htmlsi=T4jfcarib5svTDXX Also need to see what's the reason for your failure, I have shown in my video for the reason of my failure products, is it not fluffy, not rising, not blossoming or how? especially must be totally accurate when u measure your baking powder, must not overmix your batter after adding flour if gluten form for sure it will be hard not fluffy. Be sure your batter consistency after mixing is exactly as shown as my video, as different pumpkin has different moisture content, thus can adjust just abit on the water and flour amount to reach the exact consistency. be sure to rest mixture awhile after mixing and check whether did it bubbly abit (as per video)after rest? If no bubble means your baking powder not active enough, for sure your batter can't blossoming ya. Then be sure to fill till 90% full, be sure your steam pot water is big boiled before adding huatkuih to steam, be sure not to open the lid while steaming midway or else it will collapse or deflate
Please try again and let me know. I also failed a few times coz didn't follow the same technique, but in the end I made it, if I can, u sure can ya. Don't give up
