I finally got to work with the store-bought taro paste I've been trying for a while now. I just opened the package and packed the filling without adding any unsalted butter, so it felt a bit too sweet and dry. However, the dough worked really well today. The kneading process was quick and it stopped being sticky (I used the bread machine to knead the flour first). The whole process went pretty smoothly, and I was so happy.

Very nice, not too sweet , it is good for breakfast with milk

I saw other people eating it the wrong way. They should thaw it first and then steam it in a pot. Then they can mix it into a paste. This is called taro paste.

It's not delicious, the taste is very strange. The top layer is very sweet, and the taro paste below is not solid. It tastes like fine sand with a lot of water. It looks okay, but it really doesn't taste good.
