How to Make Nian Gao
- Combine glutinous rice flour, sugar, and water in a large bowl. Mix until a smooth batter forms.
- Steam the batter for approximately 30-40 minutes, or until the nian gao is cooked through and firm to the touch. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
- Once cooked, let the nian gao cool slightly before transferring it to a greased baking dish or container. Allow to cool completely.
- Once cooled, slice and serve. Enjoy your homemade Nian Gao! You can also drizzle with honey or sesame oil for extra flavor.
