Went to Giant last Wednesday to get the ingredients I need for tomorrow's udon pancake since I was in Vivo City to go check out the long-sleeve t-shirt at Uniqlo. Ended up buying more stuff than I had intended to and one of them was the glutinous rice flour. So decided to attempt to cook song pyeon again today. Only used 100g of the glutinous rice flour, managed to get the dough formed, wrapped the peanut fillings and carefully moulded it into the half-moon shape. The amount of ingredients yielded about 10 song pyeon.
There were some pandan leaves in the fridge and since I didn't have pine leaves so used pandan leaves instead. Lined the plate with pandan leaves strips, placed the song pyeon onto them and put the plate into the steamer after the water was boiling. Checked the song pyeon after 10 minutes and they looked cooked but I thought another five minutes wouldn't hurt in case the center wasn't cooked. Turned out that I was terribly wrong.
When I off the fire after the 15 minutes was up, the song pyeon was already at the state of melting. Quickly transferred them to the bowl of water with some olive oil that I had prepared earlier. Had difficulty getting them off the plate coz they were stuck so in the end, my carefully shaped song pyeon all went out of shape. Oh well... people always said "Failure is the Mother of all Success" so I guess I just need to try again another time.
