I love this dessert and always order it when available. Will definitely try it. Just a word of caution on making your own redbean paste...my mum used to do this as she scoffed at the canned type. She would be standing over the sink for an hour washing the red beans after they were boiled or something. I didn't really pay much attention! There is also redbean and lotus paste now available in plastic bags that go for CAD2 around here. Thanks again for the site! Just stumbled in and totally love your recipes!

I'm sure you'll be able to make it well. Lard is pork fat (豬油)! It does make the red bean paste taste better, but... I'm not using it anymore. And yes, all purpose flour is fine for this recipe.

I do hope you will try it at home. Do let me know if you are successful in making them. Come back and let us know how you fare. I will post the recipe for making red bean paste from scratch. I am going to Chinatown to get some red bean soon and will return to share my recipe with everyone. LaMatra, I am glad you found the recipe! I do hope you will try it at home.

I do hope my little blog can help narrow the knowledge gap in Chinese cooking. I will post the mustard green recipe soon. Michele, Thank you for your kind words and encouragement.

As a Hong Kong-raised Eurasian living in New York I am always trying to convince my American friends that there is more to Chinese food than those nasty "soup dumplings" (that are almost unrecognisable as xiao long bao) available all over the city - and it often feels like a losing battle. I applaud your efforts (and covet the mustard green dish you made for New Year.) I adore your website.
