Frequently Asked Questions
    Frequently Asked Questions
  1. Q. Can i carry this in tiffin? Will it stay soft even after cooling? If you need to carry for office, we would suggest you to add 1 tsp of fruit salt or a pinch of baking soda and then cook it in the appe mould. This way the softness of appe will remain even after cold. 
  2. Q. Is there a substitute for yogurt? You can add 1/4 cup rice flour alongwith 1/2 semolina, add water to adjust consistency and let it soak. Once soaked add 1/4 tsp soda bicarb and make the appe.
