- Pour in cold water 1 teaspoon at a time, until the dough forms a mass that is not dry or flaky, and not too tacky or too moist.
- Note: If it is too dry, add in a dribble of water until the dough can be formed. If too wet, add a little bit more glutinous rice flour. You may or may not require all the room temperature water.
