Pumpkin Tangyuan
1. Glutinous rice flour must be gradually added to the pumpkin puree, because the water content in the pumpkin puree is very high. If the pumpkin puree is more than glutinous rice flour, the flour is too thin and it cannot be made.
2. There are black sesame seeds sold in supermarkets. If you want to save time and effort, you can buy them cooked directly, put them in the cooking machine and break them at home. You can also have them ground into powder directly in the supermarket. The amount of sugar can be put according to your taste.
