1.How much is the maximum amount of sugar we can reduce for each batter & sweet bean?
2. Can we omit tapioca starch
Thank you! I love your creative spin to traditional dishes

1. For the white batter; Actually I have already reduced the amount of the sugar because it contains sweet red bean.
As for the yellow batter it is sweeter; to balance the taste of the white batter.
*If you still want to reduce the amount of the sugar, I would say max. 30% should be OK.
2. Tapioca flour acts as a thickener while creating a chewy texture. I don’t recommend to omit it as it’s a very important ingredient in this recipe. Hope this helps.
Thank you for your compliment.
