Purple rice, jujube and grape buns

    Method for making purple rice grape stuffing. First add appropriate amount of water to the purple rice (the ratio of purple rice to water I use is 1:1.3, and this ratio can be adjusted according to your taste), add a few small dates, and cook them in an electric pressure cooker. Before I cook, I always soak the purple rice for an hour or two, or I can wash it directly and put it in the pot to cook it.

    Use a bread maker to mix dough. Pour a proper amount of warm water into the bread maker, add the yeast powder in and stir well, then add the flour, activate the dough spreading function and start kneading. I just use the toaster for kneading dough, so after kneading for 20 minutes, turn off the toaster, take out the bread bucket, cover it with plastic wrap, and place it next to the radiator to spread dough. The picture shows the kneaded dough.

    Purple rice is rich in natural nutrient pigments and tryptophan. It will fade during cleaning or soaking. This is a normal phenomenon. Therefore, do not rub hard during the washing process, and do not dump the water after soaking. Cook it with the purple rice.
