Baker shares recipe for tang yuans
Nothing comes without work, and these tang yuans are no exception.
To make the Gudetama tang yuan, Jessica used pumpkin dough, plain dough and a black sesame filling. The hearty soup that accompanies the balls is apparently made using ginger and brown sugar.
The hardest step of the process is arguably the shaping of the dough.
After all, it takes skill and time to perfect Gudetama’s signature butt, sluggish poses, and humorously lethargic expressions.
To achieve the groove that acts as Gudetama’s butt cleft, the baker suggests using a toothpick or bamboo skewer.
Just a gentle press and voilà , Gudetama’s signature perky butt appears.
After finishing the shaping of each tang yuan, you can sit back as they reach a boil and ready to be indulged in.
The baker shares her recipe and methods in detail on the Facebook post that you can refer to here.
