However, the development of Confucius rice wine in the market is mixed, and many people are asking how to make Confucius rice wine.

1. Before making rice wine, prepare steaming cloth, steamer, rice wine box with lid, two small pots of cold water, 8g of wine and 4-5kg of glutinous rice. And clean the boxes and small pots and dry them for later use.

2. Wash the glutinous rice with clear water for 2 to 3 times, then soak it in water not exceeding rice for a whole day, and then wash it with clear water for 2 times.

3. Put the soaked and washed glutinous rice on the steamer and cloth, boil the water in the pot and steam for 20 to 30 minutes.

4. Put the steamed glutinous rice into the rice wine basin prepared in advance and cool it to the somatosensory temperature.

5. Pour boiling water into two small basins, cool it to cold water, pour wine into one of the small cold water basins, and stir evenly with bamboo sticks.

6. Fill a small basin of water with a glass, put it in a rice wine basin filled with glutinous rice, stir it evenly, and then rotate a hole in the middle of the basin with the prepared chopsticks to observe the amount of wine. Then put a rice wine basin next to the heater, or cover it with a piece of cloth.

7. During the coverage period of 36 to 48 hours, you can check rice wine at any time. Or take the rice wine basin to the table, cool it thoroughly, put it in a clean bottle, then cover it and put it in the refrigerator for a while.

It is an ancient custom to put some white wine in the soup after confinement. This is because when people are confined to the second month, dietary supplements are very scarce, and many women will be weak and afraid of the cold. Therefore, many older people will add some wine to the soup to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and help pregnant women to raise their body temperature.

But this cooking method is actually very unscientific. There are some alcohol components in wine, which are not only bad for the health of the stomach, but also bad for the quality of milk after eating. Now the living standard is very high, and the supply of nutrition is not a problem at all, so this old-fashioned cooking method is not suitable for continuing.
