Notes:
▪yields about 2-3 llaneras
▪steaming time depends on how much mixture in each llanera, i want mine thicķ so atleast 4 cups per llanera
▪no need to wrap a cloth on the steamer's cover since the llanera's covered with foil

🔹️resting method for egg mixture
▪about 2 days or sooner if you like
▪this is my way to obtain a smooth, texture •no bubbles/holes.
▪I always make the egg mixture ahead of time and just store it in the fridge •kinda lazy way maybe😂till I'm ready to do the caramelized sugar, then steam.
After the rest method, ️
▪DO NOT mix or stir, 
▪slowly pour the mixture on one side of each llaneras, to prevent any bubbles.

▪I don't do or follow the #salain 3-5X thingo, 1 straining is enough.
▪every individual has their way of cooking methods.
▪follow, learn, practice
▪you get to have your own technique one day and don't forget to share it...
