   Hi Alice & Novita,

   when you mix the rice flour, sugar and water, it is in liquid form, then cook the mixture over low heat till it becomes slightly thicken. It cannot cook for too long otherwise the mixture will have sago pearls forming (this process should not be more than 5 minutes).
   Remove from heat once u see the mixture is slightly thicken.

   I am so happy to find this recipe. I grew up in Hawaii, and my favorite Chinese take-out place had this. I have not had rice cake in 30 years. For some reason, the Chinese restaurants here in Florida do not make this. Thank you for this recipe. I’ll let you know how this turns out!
