What is the turnip?

The tubing cake or Law Bock Gow is a canton food that is traditionally served in the New Year and Dim Sum. Like many canton foods, the Law Bock Gow is popular in many regions of China and is easily accessible outside China, with the most dim sum of the restaurant offering tippers on their menu. This meal can also be found frozen on Asian markets for home preparation, or can be made from zero at home, using ingredients that are easily accessible on Asian markets and large grocery stores.

Despite the name, the cake of the turnip actually does not include water. The main ingredients of this meal are shredded Daikon radishes, sometimes known as "Chinese turnip" and rice flour. The radish and rice flour are mixed with water to form a thick dough that is poured into a mold and steamed. After steaming, the turn -cut canvas can be cut as it is, or can be cooked again, most classic in a pan and servked.

The

fried turnarim cake has a crunchy, slightly sweet outer layer and a soft, almost rubber -shaped interior. Tip cakes can be consumed simple or served with fermented black beans sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, chilli and many other ingredients. This meal is very dense and intensely tasty. Some chefs prefer to re -perform their turnip cakes for lighter food, although without frying, the texture of the cakes can be less interesting. Like many other DIM sum items, the Tuřín cakes are very separate, which makes them easier to pack for lunch or refreshments.

In addition to Daikon, a turnip cake can also include things such as crushed green onions, mushrooms, Chinese sausages, water chestnuts, shrimp, etc. These inclusions are more common in the more expensive versions of Law Bock Gow , while some cooks sprinkled to the top than mix them into the dough. Many cooks develop their VLAsti -preferred version of Tip.

If you want to make cakes at home, peel and grate the daikon radish and just cook it to cover it to cover it until the grated pieces soften. Allow the radish and water to cool and add rice flour to the mixture until the consistency of thick oatmeal reaches, adds salt and pepper to taste along with a touch of sugar. If you want to add inclusion, chop or shred them very gently, mix them and then add them to the turnip mixture. Pour the mixture into an oiled pan and then plant the pan into the steamer and steam for one hour. After steaming, the cakes can be cooled, cut and stored for later use or immediately consumed.
