Glutinous rice washed and soaked for 4 hours on the steamer, the water boiled and steamed over high heat for 30 minutes. About 20 minutes or so, you can open the lid and drizzle some more water on the glutinous rice. To ensure that the most surface of the rice is also moist and soft.
Pour the rice into a large mixing bowl and mix in the pork and sugar while it's still hot. If you're a bit more particular, you can use powdered icing sugar instead of sugar. The subtle taste difference, of course, is not that noticeable.
Take a ceramic bowl and grease the inside with lard using a brush. On the one hand, it is convenient to put dried fruits in the bottom of the bowl later to "locate". On the other hand, so that the steamed rice is more shiny. (If you're making a lot to freeze in the freezer, just line the bowl with plastic wrap. This step will be omitted.)
Layer the bottom of the porcelain bowl with your favorite dried fruits. I am a huge fan of putting cinnamon meat and raisins. Red and green silk is just annoying. Steam in a steamer over high heat for 10 minutes, then remove and invert onto a plate.
After spreading the dried fruits, scoop a big spoonful of glutinous rice into a bowl. Then press it down with a spoon. Press a hole in the center and save it for filling with red bean paste later. Some people worry that it will break up the pattern at the bottom, but in fact there is no need to worry at all. Once the rice is scooped in, press down a little bit and the dried fruit preserves will be set.
Fill with about the same amount of red bean paste as the rice. You can also reduce the rice by 4/5
Cover with another dollop of sticky rice and press it down with your hands.
If you're going to eat it straight away, steam it in a steamer basket over high heat for 10 minutes, then invert it and it's ready. If you want to store it in the fridge, wrap it in plastic wrap, shape it slightly with your hands, and put it in the freezer.
