Pumpkin is such a gem! It is a nutrient dense food, full of vitamins and minerals yet low in calories. Having rich in beta-carotene, fiber, potassium, and vitamin C, it offers protection against heart disease, cancer, promote fertility, boost immunity, and even protects our eyes!
Given the extensive list of nutritional benefits, pumpkin should be made a regular part of our diet. However, does it bother you that everytime after a pumpkin is cut, there comes the recipe hunting activity - gather as many recipes as possible so that you could finish it off before those fuzzy mold find their way into it? Well here is just another addition to your recipe list.
If you had not tried a hee pan before, let me describe to you the texture of this treat. It is a little bread-like, but soft and chewy with the addition of glutinous rice flour. It stays chewy and soft after cool, perfect for a afternoon snack or even as a picnic dish! A store-bought one is usually tinted with food coloring. I bet this naturally-tinted-with-beta-carotene hee pan will surely be much more appetizing and nutritious, agree?
