I cook this in the steamer tray in my rice cooker so that it cooks with the rice at the same time. It saves me the hassle of having to take out another pot to steam and wash. I remember fondly of the Chinese wax sausage as a nostalgia food that my grandfather used to cook for us a lot when we were kids as it can be kept in the freezer for months and defrosted really quickly. I minced the ginger so that the children cannot pick out the ginger and using Bentong ginger which is less spicy than old yellow ginger and more aromatic than young yellow ginger.
