Tips:
When mixing glutinous rice flour, the water should be added one by one, not all at once. It depends on the dryness and wetness of the powder. If the humidity is high, you can add an appropriate amount of dry powder and mix well. While mixing, use your hands to crush it, so that it doesn't form agglomerates. After mixing the powder, be sure to let it stand for 2-3 hours. This process is called "wake up".
