情人节快乐(吗?) ~ 粉红波点蒸蛋糕 Pink Polka Dot Steamed Cake


今天是情人节,在这里祝大家情人节快乐,甜甜蜜蜜,长长久久!

有情,每天都是情人节;无情,也没必要在这个节日装有情。但是,如果连装也不想装又或是想装也装不出时,就是到了无药可救的地步了。


圣诞节时收到有心人送的《彩绘蛋糕卷》,书的每一页我都一一仔细阅读,坦白说有被繁琐的步骤吓到。但我也好想做出有彩绘图案的蛋糕,那阵子常做蒸蛋糕,突然灵机一动就用蒸蛋糕来做彩绘。刚好圣诞节时和公司里的几位女同事办了个波点主题party,所以就做了波点杯子蛋糕当做礼物。


我也做了班兰口味的,把牛奶换成班兰汁或是在牛奶里加半茶匙班兰精,保留一点原色面糊挤成波点,成品可看这里

真正的彩绘蛋糕,总有一天,我是说总有一天我会做的。朋友。。。。等我啊,我不会辜负你送的书的。呵呵呵



粉红波点蒸蛋糕

材料:
蛋 4颗
糖 100克
低粉/普通面粉 120克
盐一小撮
牛奶 40ml
香草精 ½ 茶匙
红色素少许

做法:
1)鸡蛋打到发泡后慢慢加入糖,用高速打到泛白和非常浓稠。这时提起打蛋器蛋液不会马上滴落,在蛋液上画花纹纹路会很明显而且不会马上消失。同时煮水准备蒸笼。
2)加入盐,分3次筛入面粉,用刮刀从下往上拌均至到看不到粉的痕迹。取出2-3大匙的面糊加入少许红色素备用。
3)加入牛奶和香草精到白色面糊,拌匀。倒入纸/杯至6分满,用小型圆形挤花嘴挤上粉红色面糊。放入蒸笼大火蒸约15-20分钟。

2) Fold in sifted flour and salt , mix well. Scoop 2-3 tablespoons of batter and add in red colouring, set aside.
3) Add milk and vanilla extract to the white batter, mix well.

  9. Anonymous,

    If your steamed cake is chewy and kuih-like probably the batter didn''t rise as it suppose to.

    This steamed cake is not very fluffy type (if too fluffy the drawing on top will not be in shape) but it's soft and the texture if cake like.

    Btw, please don't forget to leave your name when you comment next time. Thanks.

  10. Hi... Like to know what is the difference with steaming cake and baking? Can we do steaming to replace baking instead?

  11. Anonymous,

    steamed cake won't have nicely brown crust like the baked one. Whether can replace baking method with steaming, I think it depends on recipe. Sorry I don't have a straight answer.
