I’d also like to know of cheaper alternatives as I’ve only seen the Bob’s Red Mill one, which is, as you say, rather expensive. if anyone has shopping tips, please do share, thanks :)!

dear Ang,

do check specific recipes for steamed buns. in any case, most buns use at least some wheat flour. if you are looking for wheat-free recipes, try steamed Chinese “cakes”.

Do we throw away the water that comes out from the radish after grating. I am told that the juice makes the radish “kiap” or bitter.

Hi, was calling all over singapore for those places that you’ve mentioned and they either don’t have it or out of stock till after CNY. Even called Mustafa and he insisted they don’t have it. Was wondering if there’s anyone with any updates on any places that still has the pans… I’m going crazy from all the calling…

I'm not sure. Bob's Red Mill produces Fava Flour and there are various health food shops and supermarkets (try Marketplace at Tanglin Mall) that stock many Bob's Red Mill products. I replaced fava bean flour with other bean flours used in Indian cooking. See my page here.
