Steps

Japanese Sakura Cranberry Daifuku

1. 1. Prepare all ingredients. Chestnut flour is best to choose Ying chestnut flour. For glutinous rice flour, I choose water-milled glutinous rice flour that I grind myself. It tastes better, softer and glutinous, and has a rich rice aroma.

3. 3. Cover with plastic wrap, and then use toothpicks to poke a few ventilation holes. After the pot is filled with air, steam for 20 to 30 minutes. Prick it with chopsticks to see if there is any liquid. If there is white liquid, continue to steam for another ten minutes until it is cooked and steamed through.
