Am I Alone?

Ever since i started this blog i never update it..such a lousy blogger i am. I'd been baking using Sourdough since July 2012. After a year of having this "Baby" (my sourdough) the baker yeast of mine sat quietly in my freezer. Actually beside baking using to bake bread, i too now learning to use it to make Chinese Steaming goodies too.. And this is one of the recipe from Sally .

This is the first batch with a slightly extra adding 1 tsp of ENO into the batter before steaming process and giving it a good stir before pouring into the steaming cup at 90% full.

This is the 2nd batch, using originally without any changes and fill the cup 100% full then steamed.
Comparing the two batches the first one i prefer most because it give me bouncy and softer compared to the 2nd ..i dunno where did it gone wrong..Next post i will be sharing more about my "Baby" with you. Stay tune!
