Detailed Steps for Cooking Pumpkin Steamed Cake
Cut the pumpkin into pieces and steam until cooked. Use chopsticks to stir into pumpkin puree and set aside 300g.
Prepare the ingredients.
Mix the pumpkin puree and egg together, add yeast, and let it sit for a while.
Add flour and mix with chopsticks until it becomes a paste. Do not use hands to knead the dough.
Sprinkle some dry flour, pat it flat with your hands, and let it ferment at room temperature for an hour and a half.
The dough after full fermentation.
Add half of the red dates and chopped walnuts, mix well with chopsticks to remove air bubbles.
Brush a layer of olive oil on the pie dish, pour in the dough. If there is no pie dish, you can directly pour it into a pot with a cloth and pat it flat with your hands dipped in cold water.
Arrange the remaining red dates and chopped walnuts on top.
Add cold water to the pot, let it ferment for 15-20 minutes, and use chopsticks to poke small holes on the surface to allow steam to escape.
Steam for about 30 minutes, let it sit for 5 minutes, and then pour it onto a cooling rack to cool.
Enjoy the finished product without any decorations added.
