The hoi sum gotta be soaked a few days in order for it to soften, doesn't it?
yes. If you're buy those dry "hoi sum", you soak first for a few days ( I normally put inside the fridge but I change the water daily). Then take out, boil some water & put your "hoi sum" inside the hot water (for a few mins). The cut open the "hoi sum" stomach to get rid all the stuffs inside.
Then put it back inside your container & soak again. You can actually see your getting bigger & bigger. Soak another 2-3 days or when you wanted to eat. (remember to change the water daily). Understand?
