Method:

For an extra smooth, strain the mixture through a sieve directly into a stainless steel plate, and transfer to the steamer.

Sprinkle with cooked glutinous rice flour. Place it in the floured mooncake mould, tap for 2 to 3 times, and press the mooncake out. Transfer to the serving plate covered with plastic wrap or airtight container and refrigerate in the fridge for 2 hours until needed. Do not stored in the freezer. and the snowskin will become hard, freezing is not advised quality point.
