This steamed pastry has the springiness of angel food cake but a fuller flavor, similar to a French genoise but softer and moister.

I remembered being extremely happy whenever there was a festival. Sometimes my mum steamed these Steamed Egg Cake as prayer offerings. I would only aiming the airy and soft egg cake after praying.

Her specialty are pastries and sweet treats, as well as bread – as evidenced by the goodies that come from her kitchen. Determined to make the products of her creative imagination a reality, Han Ker is a firm believer that nothing is impossible if you try enough times. Apart from that, Blog-hopping has inspired her, and she shares openly without a care for the jealous hoarding of information.

She is truly a home baker of substance, a blogger, and cook with plenty to offer.
Not sure the instructions are complete. What do you cook these in and how do you do it?
Hi CJ, I cook these cakes in a steamer.
I found that this recipe lack of fluid, the mixture still quite dry… are you sure there’s only 3 tbsp milk on the mixture?
