Steps:

1. Wash the rice and soak it in water the night before. When the water level is about one centimeter above the meter, place it in the refrigerator.

2. Pour the soaked rice into a food processor, add half a cup of water, and beat into rice paste.

3. Add yeast and sugar and stir evenly. Add flour and stir evenly. It can be poured in three times to facilitate thorough mixing.

4. The mixed rice batter will be like yogurt. Take out the prepared container. You can use a small bowl, stew pot or other dessert container, or you can use a small cake mold for baking. You can brush a thin layer of oil and pour the rice paste until it is seventy full. Twist the red dates at the waist and insert them into a bowl, so that the aroma and flavor of the red dates can be blended into the rice cakes during cooking. You can also use raisins, dried blueberries and other dried fruits to replace the red dates, depending on your personal preference.

5. Put it in a steaming oven for fermentation for an hour. If you don’t have a steamer, you can seal it with plastic wrap for fermentation.

Tips:

If you need to make a larger quantity Friends can make adjustments according to this ratio. If you haven’t prepared the glutinous rice yet, you can add 30 grams of cooked glutinous rice to the ratio of the recipe above, and add about 25 grams of water for whipping.
