How to make the beans soft and glutinous when making multigrain rice. My answer is: when making multigrain rice with mixed beans, sometimes the mixed beans will be very hard. If the rice loses and the mixed beans are not fully cooked, it will be difficult to eat. If you want the mixed beans to be very soft and glutinous, you must first soak the mixed beans in water. When making multigrain rice, if you are using larger beans, it is best to cook the beans first before making multigrain rice.

===Multigrain rice===

Prepare ingredients: purple rice, black beans, red beans, peanuts, lotus seeds.

Preparation method:

Soak black beans and red beans one night in advance until soft. Lotus seeds and purple rice also need to be soaked, but they must be soaked separately, not together with black beans and red beans. Boil the soaked black beans and red beans in a pot for about 30 minutes. Then take out the black beans and red beans, wash the purple rice, lotus seeds and peanuts, put them in the rice cooker, then add the cooked black beans and red beans, fill in an appropriate amount of water and cook.

Tips:

1. Multigrain rice is a very nutritious staple food. When making multigrain rice at home, you should pay attention to barley. Barley has the therapeutic effect of removing moisture from the body, but barley cannot be mixed with other foods. Mixing rice with rice to make multigrain rice will lose its moisture removal effect. Barley can be used with millet to make multigrain rice. Barley is best used alone to make soup or rice. It is best to add nourishing ingredients or animal ingredients to make soup.

2. When making multi-grain rice, use a little more water than ordinary rice, so that the beans can be cooked very soft and waxy. If you use an electric pressure cooker to make multi-grain rice, the soft and waxy effect will be better. When making multigrain rice, you can add an appropriate amount of sweet ingredients according to your own taste, such as longan, red dates and other ingredients. It tastes slightly sweet, but diabetics should try not to eat it.

3. Multigrain rice should be soft rather than hard. If you make very hard multigrain rice, for people with poor gastrointestinal tract, it is best not to eat harder staple foods. Soft and glutinous multigrain rice is not suitable for people with poor gastrointestinal tract. It will irritate the gastrointestinal tract and prevent heartburn caused by excessive gastric acid secretion after eating. Especially multigrain rice with beans added may cause indigestion or even food poisoning if it is not cooked properly.

4. Multigrain rice can also be made by adding some floral and herbal ingredients, such as lily, osmanthus, roses and other ingredients. If you want to make multi-grain rice with floral and herbal flavor, you can also add beans, but the flowers and herbs do not need to be soaked. You can just cook them directly in the rice cooker. The cooked multi-grain rice will have a faint floral and herbal flavor, and it is also a unique and delicious staple food. .
