Hi Kwan, thanks so much for the recipe and detailed video. My husband and I enjoy daikon cake very much and your recipe is the best one I have used, it is very reliable and perfect texture. I’ve gotten brave and substituted chopped and sauteed button mushrooms and vegan sausage in the same amounts and it was still great.

In reply to Lily. It is 240m of water, which is one cup, and 120g of rice flour, which is half-cup full.

Sorry for my last comment. I meant to say rice flour, not water. Is it truly only a half cup?

In reply to Mel. Starch is sticky. So try to reduce the starch, and increase the flour with the same amount. I hope it will turn out well.

In reply to Mel. @KP Kwan, Hi Kwan, thanks for replying! I tried making again with reduced 10% radish and increased 10% water, and the texture was quite nice and soft! My mum complains that it’s sticky though (although I find it alright). Got any way to reduce the stickiness? Does it have to do with the wheat starch? Thanks!

In reply to Mel. I would try to increase water by 10% and reduce the turnip by 10%. Never try that, but that is my best guess :)

Hello! Thanks for sharing! I love this recipe but my mum would like to have a smoother restaurant style. How would I go about changing the ratio to make it smoother? Should I increase the wheat starch to rice flour ratio (use more wheat starch and a bit less flour)? Or just reduce amount of turnip?

Thanks!
