I've tried from 3 days to 1 day fermentation but the result were all the same, its more like of cuchinta than puto. The only success I had before was Putong Puti. I soaked the rice for 3 hrs, and used baking powder for leavening. But there's no more fermentation. I believed I did something wrong but I can't figure it out. I really hope you can enlighten me on this. I want to know your opinion on whats the reason why some rice puto mixtures would result into cuchinta-like consistency.

Thanks a lot for sharing this. Am at the point where I have combined the two portions. My question is Does the fermentation process change when the mixture is covered with a tight seal, or is muslim or towel used to breathe out the excess gasses fermentaiton creates? I will await your comment. Thanks again for sharing your experiment. My kids love putong puti so much that I had to try to make it at home. Bebep Hello,

If you are trying this out, please make sure you see my "ETA" above (1/7/08) about Thai jasmine rice. <strong>Beth</strong>, yes, I have pics as I mentioned, just haven't had time to sit down and edit and post. Within the week, I hope! <strong>Marilena</strong>, no problem! <strong>Sr. Mary Martha</strong>, I'm pleasantly surprised and honored that you should drop by. Happy New Year to you and the sisters! <strong>Lani</strong>, the link with the "ragi" would probably ship it to wherever you are (hopefully won't be a problem with customs). Let me know if it is and I'll see if there's something we can do from here. <strong> JMom</strong>, I really hope you try the bubud equivalent -- would love to see your notes and thoughts on that!
