Pour the mixture into a greased steaming tray.

Steam the mixture for about 30 minutes until firm and translucent.

Remove from the steamer and let it cool slightly.

Dust a clean surface with cornstarch to prevent sticking.

Shape the dough into a long cylinder, about 1 inch in diameter.

Cut the cylinder into bite-sized pieces.

Optionally, roll the pieces in sesame seeds or serve with red bean paste.
