Black Soybean Steamed Bread
- 1 saucer full Cooked kuromame (black soy beans)
- 200 ml or 1 dash less Stewed liquid from the beans (If you don't have enough, add milk )
- 200 grams Cake flour
- 2 tsp Baking powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- These are the items to prepare.
- To the right of the aluminum muffin cups is aluminum-free baking powder.
- To weigh in the cake flour, set a sieve on a kitchen scale with a light-weight tray underneath, then set the scale to zero.
- Then measure in 200 g of cake flour.
- Here are the kuromame and the stewed liquid.
- I use about 190 ml of liquid.
- Drain the liquid from the kuromame.
- Set the steamer over water and bring to a boil on high heat.
- Sift the cake flour and baking powder into a bowl, add the stewed liquid and salt, then fold the ingredients together with a spatula.
- Don't mix the batter too much.
- If mixing the beans into the batter (instead of using them as topping), mix them in at this stage.
- Pour into aluminum muffin cups, and top with the kuromame.
- Since the beans will shift to the edges when the bread rises while steaming, place them in the center.
- Place the filled cups in the steamer, cover with a tea towel, then the lid (I recommend folding the corners of the towel up over the lid).
- Steam on high heat for 10 minutes, then they're ready!
- There, you have fuffy, soft, and chewy kuromame steamed bread!
- Key points: Measure out the ingredients properly; lightly fold in ingredients; and place the filled cups in the steamer when plenty of steam is rising.
- This is how they look when topped with the kuromame.
- This is what they look like with the kuromame mixed into the batter.
