Aromatic and chewy coconut water chestnut cake



I've always loved bouncy textures and coconut milk flavors. If you like them too, I suggest giving this a try—go ahead, you first! Tips: 1. Before starting, carefully read steps 1–3. 2. Demoulding: Let it cool completely before unmoulding and cutting (for the best chewy texture). Gently press the edges to loosen from the mold, then invert and slice.
Ingredients
Steps
- To make yellow paste 1: Mix 150 grams of water chestnut powder with 300 grams of water until there are no particles and set aside (if conditions permit, you can sieve it).

- To make yellow paste 2: add 150g of sugar to 350g of water and boil until melted.

- Mix raw and cooked paste (mix yellow paste 1 and yellow paste 2): wait for the boiled sugar water to drop to about 90 degrees, add about 60 grams (1 tablespoon) of yellow paste 1 into the water chestnut powder water in yellow paste 2, stir quickly until the state in the video, and then pour all into the water chestnut powder raw paste water in step 1 while it is still hot (because I was operating alone and had to take pictures, so I poured the paste with 60 grams of water chestnut water into the raw paste and left a little for you to see the state, and then poured all into it and mixed well). Experience: If you don't make raw and cooked paste, there will be a lot of water when the yellow paste is steamed.

- To make the white paste: add 150 grams of milk to 100 grams of water chestnut powder and mix evenly until there are no particles. Then add 400 grams of coconut milk and condensed milk and stir evenly for later use.

- Prepare to steam: It is recommended to weigh the container in advance so that the two pastes can be divided equally. Since I want to share it with my neighbors, I doubled the recipe. The yellow paste is 1816 grams in total, divided into 5 portions, about 363 grams each. The white paste is 1437 grams in total, divided into 4 portions, about 359 grams each.

- Steaming: 1. After the water in the pot boils, pour the yellow paste into the steaming basin and steam for 4 minutes, then continue to pour the white paste into the steaming basin and steam for 4 minutes, then pour the yellow paste and steam for 4 minutes, and steam the yellow and white pastes alternately until the last layer (because it looks good, I divided the amount into 9 layers. You can adjust it according to the amount of steaming basin and paste. Remember that the yellow layer should be one more than the white layer, and each layer should be 4 mm thick to be beautiful).
2. It must be completely cool before demolding to be chewy (press the water chestnut cake with your hands around the edges until it is separated from the mold, pour it out, and then cut it).
Finally, I steamed a full basin (28cm*22cm*6.5cm).
