But then, it would take me and my brother the whole saturday morning to take turn grinding the rice with the quern. My brother use to say we will have big muscles at the end of the session. We never did. We were just 6 and 10 year old who wanted to eat "pinisi" donut twist. <br />After lunch our lola would do her magic, separating the big bits and the flour. By strike of 3pm, we have a ground cocoa drink with our donut twisty. <br />Thanks for the recipe, I might score some rice flour. Don't know if quern exist in north america, i would love my kids to have a touch of it. <br /><br />AngelinaAngelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08967592028874904391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5261777578563960594.post-16141750956251446292011-12-04T23:01:43.281-08:002011-12-04T23:01:43.281-08:00I made one just right now and it turned out crunch...I made one just right now and it turned out crunchy outside and a bit chewy inside. You really have to make the consistency of the dough just right or you won't be able to form a twisted shape. It was experimental for me, the first batch I made was all purpose flour, egg, baking powder and milk but the end product turned out hard like you're eating sweetened rock. This one is crunchy outside but chewy which I believe is due to the glutinous flour or sweet rice flour(malagkit in powder form). I'm still looking the right pilipit recipe that will have the right turn out consistency. Just like the one I used to have when I was a kid.Ligayanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5261777578563960594.post-31297151187705356472009-04-25T20:51:00.000-07:002009-04-25T20:51:00.000-07:00Wow, Chowhound, I got a little teary eyed when I r...Wow, Chowhound, I got a little teary eyed when I read your comment. Thank you for sharing!

We have to pound the glutinous rice to remove the husk, then manually pound them to turn them into rice flour. It was hard work but well worth it. This looks fabulous. It actually made me miss my Lola.Chowhoundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16652107572049846586noreply@blogger.com
