Cute Rabbit Steamed Buns for Cherry Blossom Viewing

Recipe :  Cute Rabbit Steamed Buns for Cherry Blossom Viewing
























Ingredients

For the dough:

40 grams Japanese yam
1 roughly 55 grams Joshinko
1 Joshinko (for dusting)
80 grams Powdered sugar (sifted)
1 dash Red food coloring

For the sweet potato filling:

100 grams Sweet potato
20 grams Condensed milk
10 grams Sugar (white sugar would have a prettier finish)
5 grams Butter

For the purple sweet potato filling:


100 grams Purple sweet potato
20 grams Condensed Milk
10 grams Sugar (white sugar would have a prettier finish)
5 grams Butter

 

Method

1  Sweet potato filling: Steam and strain the sweet potatoes. While they are hot, add the butter, sugar, condensed milk and mix. If the filling is too loose, evaporate the moisture by microwaving it.















2  Purple sweet potato filling: Make the filling in the same way as the sweet potato filling. If the filling is too dry, add milk or fresh cream (not listed).

3  Cool the fillings and divide into 5 portions each. Roll into balls (each should be about 25 g).


















4  Batter: Grate the Japanese yam in a mortar and add the powdered sugar in 3 parts.Incorporate air as you grate with a pestle to make a fluffy batter.
















5  Put the joshinko into a bowl and Step 5 on top.Fold and knead the flour into the batter.
Add flour until the batter is firm like an earlobe.

















6  Divide the batter into 2 and add the red food coloring to one (dissolve powdered red coloring with water). Rub the coloring into the batter to add the color.
















7  Divide the two differently colored batters into 5 and round into balls (each ball should be roughly 17 g). If they stick together, coat your hands in joshinko. Cover with cling film.

















8  Shape: Stretch the batter and cover the sweet potato filling in the white batter. Cover the purple sweet potato filling with the pink batter.
















9  Steam: Wrap the lid of the steamer with a dish cloth. Place the buns on a sheet of parchment paper and steam for about 9 minutes at medium-high heat.

















10  Once the steamed buns have cooled, lightly cook the bottom of the steamed buns with an electric griddle at 180°C. This will prevent sticking when you lay the buns on a plate.
















11  Add the design. Heat a metal skewer or similar utensil and press into the steamed buns to draw the ears and mouth.
















12  Dip the reverse end of a toothpick into red food coloring (dissolve powdered coloring with water). Draw the eyes onto the steamed buns with the toothpick.















-Step 6: The amount of flour changes according to the moisture of the potato. Adjust the flour so that it is roughly the texture of an earlobe.
-The filling tastes better if it's soft. Please adjust the texture according to your taste.
