Rice bean rice dumplings

Rice bean rice dumplings
For the first time, I chose the easiest method to make rice dumplings-conical shape (the method was learned from "Junliang's mother"-thank you). It was very smooth. In addition to the preparation work taking a long time, it was still quite fast.
It's just-----The only thing I didn't expect was that this simplest method of wrapping would eventually occur when it was cooked. The originally well-tied straw rope followed the sharp corners of the rice dumplings when it was cooked. The place slipped, and several of the dozen rice dumplings scattered--this is the experience. Friends who have never wrapped rice dumplings must learn from me!!

  • Rice bean rice dumplings Make Tips

    1. The rice soaked this time is relatively long, and the rice cooked is really soft and sticky. Friends who like soft and sticky rice dumplings can try to brew it for a longer time, while those who like Q and have a bit chewy can brew it for a shorter time or no soak. 2. Be sure to tie it tightly when wrapping it, at least not to leak the pan when it is cooked to the end--a talk from experience. 3. You can adjust the cooking time according to the size of the rice dumplings. 4. Put the rice dumplings that cannot be eaten in cold water, and it can be refrigerated or even frozen in the refrigerator. 5. Don't eat too much at one time, otherwise it will not be easy to digest. It is said that adding a little less alkali to the soaked rice can make the rice dumplings more chewy and facilitate digestion. You can try it!
