Ingredients: yellow wheat and red dates.
Specific practices:
1, red dates are generally whole, but my little guy doesn't like to eat whole red dates, so I wash them, core them and cut them into cubes. The jujube I bought contains a lot of water and tastes just right. If I buy dry dates, I need to wash them and cook them with clear water, and then cook them until they are soft.
2. Put the yellow wheat into the basin, slowly pour it in with boiling water, while stirring with chopsticks, slowly pour the water. Yellow wheat is in the best state of being wet and not caking.
Don't stop watering until the yellow wheat in the pot has no dry powder.
4. Pour the diced red dates into the yellow wheat and mix well. Usually, the rice cakes steamed by my mother are all covered with yellow wheat and red dates. I didn't make this, just mixed it with yellow rice flour.
5. Prepare the steamer, lay a wet cloth under it, and use the steamer directly if there is no steamer. In fact, it is best to use cabbage leaves as the bottom. My mother always uses cabbage leaves.
6. Put the mixture of yellow wheat and red dates into the steamer.
7. put it in a steamer and steam it in water. Because I made a small amount, I put all the powder directly in. In large quantities, I need to steam one layer at a time. Steam the lower layer first, then put another layer, and so on. Until the end, the rice cake was quite thick.
8, eat hot, so satisfied. If it is steamed too much, cut it into small pieces, put it in a food bag, tie the mouth of the bag, put it in the refrigerator for frozen storage, and steam it again when eating, which will restore the sticky taste.
Wordy:
1. The more water added in the second step, the softer the rice cake, and the softer and more sticky the rice cake. You can decide according to your own preferences.
If you buy red dates that are too dry, you must cook them first. Don't pour out the boiling water. Use it to splash yellow wheat. Yellow wheat tastes sweet.
3. If you steam a lot at a time, you can steam it all in one pot. You need to steam one layer first, then sprinkle with the mixed yellow wheat, steam it again, and so on.
