Steps for Heart-shaped purple rice cake

1
a. Soak black rice + rice + glutinous rice overnight with as little water as possible (water is about 1cm higher than rice). b. Drain the rice soaking water into a clean bowl for use.
2
Dry the drained rice grains in the shade until the rice grains do not stick together, but it is still a little cloudy, cool and moist when you grab it with your hands (I blow it with the cold wind from the hair dryer).
3
Grind the dried rice grains into coarse powder with a food processor. It's coarse powder, because what we make is rice cakes, not dumplings.
4
After making coarse flour, sprinkle some rice soaking water into the coarse flour. Because the coarse flour is too dry and hard to eat, and it will be too sticky to eat when it is too wet, so sprinkle water on the right hand side and mix the coarse flour on the left hand side until it is moist but not wet.
5
Apply a coat of oil to the heart mold.
6
Pour 1/2 of the coarse flour into a heart-shaped mold and compact it, and then squeeze a layer of bean paste. The bean paste accounts for 2/3 of the entire surface of the coarse flour, because if it is crowded, the bean paste will be exposed from the side.
7
Pour the remaining coarse powder into a heart-shaped mold and consolidate.
8
Add 500ml of cold water to the pan, steam over medium heat for 15 minutes and turn off the heat.Heart-shaped purple rice cake Make Tips
1. The ratio of all rice is 1:1:1. No pure glutinous rice can be used, otherwise it will be too sticky;2. If you are impatient, you can use the cold air stop of the hair dryer to dry the drained rice;3. The bean paste has a sweet taste, no need to add additional sugar to the coarse flour.
