Usage

• Activate & Knead: Mix the flour with the enclosed dry yeast and warm coconut milk (or water) as instructed, kneading well until smooth.

• First Proof: Cover and let the dough rest (proof) in a warm place for about 30 minutes.

• Sugar Mix & Second Proof: Dissolve sugar in warm coconut milk (or water), mix this solution into the proofed batter, and allow it to rest for another 30 minutes, or until the mixture shows small bubbles (sủi tăm).

• Steam/Bake: Pour the batter into lightly greased molds and steam for 25 - 30 minutes over high heat (or bake if making Bánh Bò Nướng) until a toothpick comes out clean.
