Notes
Use room-temperature eggs for better volume. Don’t skip the resting step; it makes a difference! Experiment with flavors like matcha or pandan for variety. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days, or refrigerate in humid climates. For leftovers, freeze individual slices wrapped in plastic wrap for up to a month; reheat by steaming.
