Hello Rose
First of all, thank you so much for your generosity in sharing all these lovely recipes.
I would like to check with you please on the Hum Cheem Pang recipe yeast dough ingredients. There is no yeast in the ingredient list, yes?

Hi Rose,
I intend to make Hum Chee Pang upon seeing your recipe but why is it there is no yeast in all the ingredients?
Hope to receive your reply so that I could start trying.
Thank you for taking up your time.

Dear Rose,
Just wondering - the hum-cheem-peang yeast dough that you set aside for 48 hours do not require yeast?
Thanks,
Irene
