  4. Brush a thin layer of oil inside of the square cake pan to help hold wax paper in place.

  5. Place taro evenly into the cake pan. Be sure to pack the taro nice and firm.

  6. Steam bake at 300°F for 50 minutes and remove from oven. Sprinkle with sesame and add red date to garnish. Cut taro cake into squares and serve. For a bit of crisp, try pan frying the squares.Note: 

Note:

  • Applying a piece of wax paper at the bottom of the pan, the taro cake becomes easier to remove once cooled. By picking up on both ends of the wax paper. Remember to remove the paper before serving!

  • Alternative to a steam oven. Bake in a regular oven, simply use another pan and fill with water and place cake pan on top.
