Glutinous rice (glutinous rice), red dates, water

Production steps:

Wash the glutinous rice, soak it in cold water for more than eight hours, and then spread a layer of soaked glutinous rice on the rice cooker, about1cm;

Wash the red dates, soak them in warm water, and spread a layer of red dates evenly on the rice.

Spread the remaining rice on the red dates and compact. Take a small cup, put it in the water ring, turn it around, and pour the water into the pot evenly and slowly (be sure to pour the water slowly, otherwise it will float up early) until the water and rice are even (the water doesn't have to be over the height of rice, the rice has been soaked for eight hours and absorbed enough water). Start the rice cooker.

5. After cooking, open the lid and press the sticky rice with a scraper and spoon.

6. Cover again and keep warm for two hours, then turn off the power. After the cake is cooled, tilt it around the pot with a rice shovel, buckle the cake upside down on the panel, and cut it to serve.

Extended data:

Cake cutting has a long history. As early as the Silk Road, Xinjiang was an important transportation hub for caravans at home and abroad, and also an important grain supply station. Because businessmen travel long distances, the food they carry must be kept for a long time and easy to carry.

Moreover, it should be rich in various nutrients, amino acids and trace elements necessary for the human body, such as vitamin C, otherwise people will travel long distances and die of scurvy, just like the sailors on Da Gama and Magellan's ocean fleet.

The characteristics of easy storage, easy carrying and high nutrition of cut cakes are meeting the needs of business people.
