Hollow Corn Bread

Batters and Breads

Hollow Corn Bread
Ingredients:
1 pound less two tablespoons yellow corn flour (not corn meal)
6 Tablespoons defatted yellow soybean flour
1/2 pound granulated sugar
1 Tablespoon osmanthus flower paste
Preparation:
1. Mix corn and soybean flours with the sugar into a bowl and stir well. Make a well in this flour mixture.
2. Mix half cup and two tablespoons of warm water with the osmanthus flower paste, then pour into the flour and knead this into that mixture.
3. Roll the dough into two even cigar-shaped pieces one inch thick. Cut each of these into twenty to thirty pieces, then shape each piece of dough so the bottom is large and the top is pointed (see the picture). Insert a thumb in the bottom of each piece of dough making the bottom half of it hollow.
4. Steam over rapidly boiling water for twelve minutes, then serve warm.
