Step 6
Pour the pudding mixture into a mold. Place the mold into a large pot. Add water to the pot until it reaches one-third of the mold's height (not into the mold itself!), bring to a boil, and cover tightly with a lid. Steam cook for 6 hours. Afterward, remove any foam and let the pudding cool. Place the mold with the pudding into the refrigerator for several days (preferably one week). Before serving, reheat the pudding and mix all the sauce ingredients. Serve with the sauce.
