Title: Rice Wine Biscuit??
Post by: Sassafrass on August 15, 2011, 01:43:04 am

Hi all,
this is my second query post for the Rice Flower Steamed Cakes p85 from A Taste of Asia cookbook.  I cannot find where to buy wine rice biscuit.  In the books glossary it states it is the "remains of rice wine making.... pressed into a cake or biscuit shape", BUT I can't find it anywhere ???.  I asked in China Town supermarket (Brisbane), but they weren't sure what I meant.  Please someone help as these cakes do sound, and look great.  And now I've found out what ENO is and actually bought it I want to give this recipe a go, I'm even happy with a substitute, as the wine biscuit needs to be pounded in the original recipe. I've googled wine biscuit, but only get recipes for biscuit to make with or for wine.  Please Help!

Sassafrass, I googled wine biscuit (as per the recipe description) and came up with this (http://allrecipes.com.au/recipe/9396/lemon-cheesecake.aspx) site.  Scroll down to the reviews and you will see it can be substituted with marie biscuits.
