开运发糕听过发糕的来历吗？传说以前有一位农家小媳妇在拌粉蒸糕时不小心碰翻了一碗酒糟，由于担心遭到公婆责骂，硬着头皮把沾了酒糟的粉浆蒸熟。谁知由于酒糟的发酵作用，这一笼糕蒸得特别松软可口，发糕就此流传开来。

發糕又叫發粿，是中国南方的潮汕、福建、海陆丰及台湾传统民俗过年的糕点。古代即流传过年吃发糕以求好兆头，这种风俗随着当时南来的祖先被带到本地并广为流传。

发糕在蒸煮的过程中受热膨胀，使表皮胀裂，呈十字或不规则型的裂痕。发糕谐音发财、高升，因为发糕寓意着发财、发家等意义，深受群众喜欢。发得越大，裂痕越深，象征发大财、发好运，即代表运势越好的象征。

这本《开运发糕》共有六十多个食谱，分为“传统发酵法”、“简易发酵法”及“咸味发糕”三个系列。在健康为前提之下，书内教导制做发糕所采用的食材都是天然材料，让你做得开心、吃得健康。

Fatt Koh: A Natural Heritage
Do you know the story of how fatt koh was born. According to folklore, a housewife accidentally spilled a bowl of wine residue onto her tray of batter meant for kuih. She had no choice but to steamed it as it would displease her in-laws with wastage. But the kuih came out all fluffy and nice. Fatt Koh was brought forth by mistake.

This kind of sweet rice cakes are more popular in southern China like the Teochew area, Fujian, certain clan of Hakkas, most Taiwanese and others. In the olden days, it was of good significance to eat fatt koh during the Lunar year. Traditionally, they are good symbolic food as altar table offerings.

After a good proof, you need strong heat to swell up the rice cakes so a well-risen cake should have a characteristic crack at the surface with a few segments giving out their smiley faces. As the word “fatt” rhymes with the pun of “being prosperous”, it should go down well with most Chinese people.

With the help of this book "Prosperity Fatt Koh", you can feast on 63 different range of fatt koh using either traditional, simple or savoury methods. Using many natural ingredients without the aid of artificial inedible food colouring,
it becomes a collection of fatt koh treats.目录 CONTENTS
