Taro Paste

Overview

Taro puree (the preparation method is introduced in the previous recipe) is a traditional dessert in Mianhu, Jieyang. It is characterized by soft cotton that melts in the mouth. Taro paste cake is another texture I created based on this, which is crispy on the outside and smooth on the inside! If you don’t want to eat sweet food, you can add 2 teaspoons of salt instead of sugar to make it salty
