The size and arrangement of the holes in the plate are crucial for creating the delicate strands of string hoppers. These holes allow the batter or dough to pass through, forming thin strands as it falls onto the surface below.
To use the food plate, the cook places it over a pot or container filled with boiling water or steaming liquid. The prepared batter or dough for the string hoppers is then placed onto the plate.
With the help of pushing rods or a press, gentle pressure is applied to the batter or dough, forcing it through the holes in the plate. As a result, thin strands of the mixture fall into the boiling water, where they cook and expand into fluffy string hoppers.
The design of the food plate ensures that the string hoppers produced are uniform in size and texture, enhancing the overall presentation and taste of the dish.
