01
Preparation
00:00:03

Rinse 400g of rice clean and soak it in ample water overnight (about 8 hours) until the grains fully absorb water and can be easily crushed into small crumbs with fingers; drain well and set aside.

lightbulb

Watch out

The rice must be thoroughly rinsed before soaking and soaked long enough

otherwise, the grains will remain too firm and produce a grainy batter

Ingredients:white rice (400 g)
Tools:mixing bowl
02
Preparation
00:00:15

Transfer all drained soaked rice into a high-speed blender, add 500ml of water, secure the lid, and run the juice/smoothie cycle until completely blended into a smooth, milky white liquid batter.

lightbulb

Watch out

Keep the water-to-rice ratio exact at 500ml water to 400g dry rice

too much water makes the sheet too runny to roll, while too little makes it tough and chewy

Ingredients:white ricewater (500 ml)
Tools:blender
03
Preparation
00:00:36

Pour the blended rice batter through a fine-mesh strainer into a large bowl to filter out any unground rice particles, resulting in a completely smooth liquid batter.

lightbulb

Watch out

Straining is necessary

any remaining rice grit will make the steamed noodle sheets uneven in texture and prone to breaking

Ingredients:white rice
Tools:mixing bowlMesh strainer
04
Preparation
00:00:44

Add 70g wheat starch, 5g salt, and 5ml cooking oil into the strained rice batter; stir thoroughly with a spoon until the powder completely dissolves without lumps, forming a smooth, slightly viscous, freely flowing liquid.

lightbulb

Watch out

Wheat starch improves translucency, elasticity, and prevents tearing

stir out all dry lumps thoroughly, and always stir from the bottom before ladling as starches quickly settle

Ingredients:wheat starch (70 g)Salt (5 g)Cooking oil (5 ml)
Tools:spoon

Preparation
00:01:06

In a small bowl, combine 5 tbsp light soy sauce, 3 tbsp seasoned soy sauce for seafood, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 15g rock sugar (about 5 small crystals), and 100ml water; mix well and set aside.

Watch out

The sauce must be diluted with water and balanced with rock sugar

never use neat soy sauce directly or it will be overly salty and harsh

Pour 15ml cooking oil into a pan, add 30g scallion sections, and fry over medium-low heat until fragrant; pour in the mixed sauce, bring to a boil and simmer for about 2 minutes until the rock sugar completely dissolves and becomes aromatic, then turn off the heat, strain out the scallions, and keep the sauce in a bowl.

Watch out

Control the heat when frying scallions so they do not char and turn bitter

strain the sauce as soon as the sugar melts and aromas release, avoiding over-reduction which makes it too salty

Preparation

Stir the batter thoroughly from the bottom, then ladle about 120ml onto a large steaming tray and tilt to spread an even, thin layer over the base; crack in 1 egg, break and swirl the yolk/white into the batter with the back of a spoon, and scatter 25g minced pork and 5g chopped scallions evenly on top.

Watch out

Always stir the batter before ladling to prevent starch settling

ensure the batter layer is very thin and even, as a thick layer will turn sticky and heavy instead of smooth

warningStay safe

Wear heat-resistant oven mitts when opening the steamer and taking out the tray to avoid severe burns from hot steam and the scalding metal tray.

Place the prepared tray into a preheated, fully steaming steamer or steam oven; close the door and steam over high heat for 2 to 3 minutes until the sheet turns translucent, puffs up with large air bubbles, and the pork and egg are completely cooked through; carefully remove the tray with oven mitts.

Watch out

Ensure vigorous steam throughout cooking

insufficient steam causes uneven heat, resulting in half-cooked or separated batter

While hot, use a bench scraper to push and fold the noodle sheet from one end into a rippled roll, transfer to a serving plate, and spoon 2 tbsp of hot scallion soy sauce over the top; repeat Steps 7 through 9 for the remaining batter.

Watch out

Scrape and roll immediately while hot

once cooled, the rice sheet will stick firmly to the tray and tear apart easily
