Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Combine glutinous rice flour, cornstarch, sugar, corn oil, and whole milk in a mixing bowl. Whisk thoroughly for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
  2. Optional: Strain the batter through a fine-mesh sieve into another bowl for an ultra-smooth texture.
  3. Pour the mixture into a non-stick pan and cook on low heat, stirring continuously for 8-10 minutes until thickened.
  4. Remove from heat and cool for 5 minutes. Knead the dough in the pan for about 5 minutes until elastic and slightly sticky.
  5. Shape the dough into a log about 1 inch in diameter, dusting with glutinous rice flour to prevent sticking.
  6. Cut the shaped dough into pieces about 1-2 inches in size with a sharp knife coated in cornstarch.
  7. Roll the cut pieces in roasted soybean flour, ensuring each piece is evenly coated, and arrange on a serving plate.
