Dingsheng cake

Overview

Dingsheng cake, a Jiangnan snack. I have heard about it before but never paid attention to it. It is said that this cake has quite an allusion and seems to be related to the Taiping Army. There are many opinions as to what its origin is, but I am too lazy to go into details. Jiangnan dim sum always seems to be too sweet and is often avoided. By chance, I saw this recipe for Dingsheng cake. I happened to have a new bag of rice noodles, and the red bean paste was also ready-made. It was so simple to make that I couldn't help but be tempted. I didn't hesitate to make more. This Dingsheng cake looks similar to sponge cake, and sponge cake has always been unpopular. The comments are, "I'm a fan, I'm full of diamonds." Just try it with a knife, and you'll be done with it. I didn’t change the recipe, I kept muttering in my heart, I hope it’s not too sweet. As I tasted it carefully, I suddenly remembered the peach slice cake, a snack that seemed a bit troublesome and I couldn't find the recipe. . . .
