Raw materials: glutinous rice, rice, mixed grains rice, peanuts, walnuts, red dates, raisins, dried cranberries, red bean paste, honey;
Production process:
1, the rice ingredients and peanuts soaked in water for 2 hours. Here I used glutinous rice, rice and a handful of mixed grain rice, the ratio is 8:1:1, glutinous rice is the largest proportion, the other can be arbitrary. Mixed grain rice I am using the mixed grain package, glutinous rice, rhubarb rice, buckwheat, lotus seeds and other mixed, this can also be arbitrary with the amount is not much;
2, soaked peanuts, glutinous rice and so on together into the steamer, add the right amount of water, cooked into a soft and tasty sticky rice; because the peanuts will be floating, so after steaming the rice after most of the peanuts in the surface layer;
3, Red dates with scissors cut into date slices, ready raisins, dried cranberries, walnuts. Dates can be used as a whole, but there are children at home, in order to be safe, it is recommended to remove the core;
4, prepare two bowls as a mold, the bowl smeared with butter, you can also smear lard or other cooking oil, mainly to prevent sticking, a good mold;
5, the first layer of dates and raisins, I was randomly laying the date of the red part of the date should be facing the inward, because the last is to be buckled out of the bottom layer!
6, the whole box of glutinous rice, using a rice spoon to stir a few times, so that the peanuts and glutinous rice mixed evenly, mixing time is also convenient to let the glutinous rice heat, not so hot hands;
7, take a large piece of glutinous rice in a bowl, hands on disposable gloves, the glutinous rice pressed pressure, the sticky rice, and the sticky rice, and the sticky rice is not so hot.
7, take a large piece of glutinous rice in the bowl, put disposable gloves on your hands, press the glutinous rice firmly, wear gloves, one is hygiene, the second is not sticky hands, glutinous rice is still quite sticky;
8, after a layer of glutinous rice pressure, in the bowl around the perimeter of the continued arrangement of raisins and cranberries, according to their own preferences on the good spread on it;
9, and then some of the glutinous rice, pressed in the bowl; at this time the middle of the room to leave empty space, around the can be slightly higher;
10, take some of the glutinous rice, press the bowl;
10, take a piece of red bean paste filling, pressed and placed in the bowl in the middle of the empty space left;
11, and then take a piece of glutinous rice, red bean paste covered underneath, and continue to press the rice with your hands, the rice pressed solid;
12, a square glass bowl is also done this way, a layer of glutinous rice layer of red bean paste;
13, both bowls are full, and also pressed solid;
14, put into the steamer, steamed for about 40 minutes;
15, steamed eight treasures of rice, you can directly inverted in the plate, because the bowl is smeared with oil around the pouring out of it is easy, the shape is also very complete;
16, finally, to the inverted out of the eight treasures of rice drizzled with delicious honey, the bowl of sweet sticky eight treasures of rice is ready, you can open! Some people like in the glutinous rice mixed with white sugar or brown sugar, to increase the sweetness of eight treasures rice. But I think it's already quite sweet just with the sweetness of the red dates and red bean paste filling, and it tastes so good with a drizzle of honey at the end! Much tastier and healthier than putting sugar! Worth recommending.
