SWEET RICE FLOUR DUMPLINGS
These sticky, sweet dumplings, which are easier to produce than most savory dumplings, are served at New Year's festivities throughout East and Southeast Asia. Palm sugar and glutinous rice flour can be found at most Asian markets.

Steps:
- Mix the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Slowly stir in 3/4 cup hot water until a dough forms. Transfer the dough to a floured work surface and knead until stiff, about 5 minutes. Or combine the flour and salt in a food processor and, with the machine running, add water until a dough ball forms, then knead by hand for about 30 seconds.
- Combine the ginger with 5 cups water in a large pot and bring to a boil; adjust the heat so the mixture simmers steadily but not violently. Meanwhile, form the dough into 2-inch balls, using as much flour as you need to keep the mixture from sticking. Using your thumbs, make an indentation in the center of each ball. Fill each indentation with 1/2 teaspoon palm sugar and seal the balls shut. Gently roll the filled dumplings into balls again.
- Put the balls into the water one at a time and cook, stirring occasionally to keep the balls from sticking to each other, until they float to the surface, about 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, roll in the shredded coconut if you like, and serve warm or at room temperature, with some of the ginger broth spooned over them if desired.
- Omit the palm sugar and shredded coconut. Using a spice grinder or food processor, grind together 2 tablespoons toasted black sesame seeds (page 596) with 3 tablespoons sugar. Stir in 3 teaspoons corn, grapeseed, or other neutral oil until a stiff paste is formed. Use this as the filling and proceed as directed, serving the dumplings with the ginger broth.
- Omit the palm sugar. Mix 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut with 1/ 4 cup chopped roasted peanuts and 3 tablespoons sugar. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and cook, unfilled, until they float to the surface, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and toss with the coconut-peanut mixture.

Steps:
- Measure each ingredient by scooping it into a measuring cup (or spoon), leveling it off with a straight edge, such as the back of a knife. In a large mixing bowl, whisk all ingredients together very well until they are evenly distributed. I whisk the ingredients slowly for at least a minute or two, making sure to get to the bottom of the bowl and turning the ingredients over and over.
- This recipe can easily be halved, doubled, or tripled.
BIBINGKA (SWEET RICE FLOUR)
Made with Mochiko (sweet rice flour) and coconut milk. This is one of my favorite Filipino desserts that I had growing up. Pieces of this dessert are like eating Pringles...you can't eat just one.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and butter or spray a 9 x 13 glass dish.
- Cream the butter, sugar and eggs in a bowl.
- Add remaining ingredients and blend well.
- Pour into glass dish and bake for 40-50 minutes.
- Edges should have a nice light brown color while the middle is a nice cream color. Eat hot or cold.
- (Optional) I like to add the shredded coconut to the batter. For the last 15 minutes of baking, I also like to take some of the shredded coconut and sprinkle it to the top of the cake to toast the coconut. Very delicious!
