slow-motion step chart for novice dumplings
Step 1: Prepare
Zongzi leaves
1. Soak dry Zongzi leaves in clear water overnight, and omit this step for fresh Zongzi leaves.
2. After soaking the leaves, wash both sides with clean water, either by hand or by using cleaning tools.
3. Add a lot of water to the pot and bring to a boil. Put the zongzi leaves in the pot and boil them in boiling water for three minutes.
4. Take out the zongzi leaves, cut off the petioles, rinse them again with clear water and drain them for later use.
glutinous rice
1. Wash the glutinous rice with clear water and soak it in water for 8 hours until it can be easily crushed by hand.
2. Drain the soaked glutinous rice, add proper amount of cooking oil, soy sauce, salt and sugar, and stir well for later use.
Step 2: Adjust the stuffing
Pork stuffing materials: pork belly, soy sauce, salt and sugar
1. Wash pork belly with clear water, and choose pork belly with certain fat to taste better.
2. Cut the pork belly into squares of equal size and put them in a bowl. Add a spoonful of soy sauce, half a spoonful of salt and a spoonful of sugar and stir well.
3. The stirred pork belly can be used after standing and pickling for two hours.
Step 3: Wrap
1. Pick two zongzi leaves so that the smooth side of the leaves faces up. Recess the leaves into a funnel shape by hand at a third of the distance from the petiole, and the bottom of the funnel must be tight, otherwise it will leak rice.
2. Add a proper amount of glutinous rice to half of the funnel and press it with a spoon to make the bottom more full.
3. Add a piece of salted pork belly and press it slightly with a spoon.
4. Add glutinous rice again and compact it with a spoon to make it flush with the funnel mouth. Can't add too little, lest the zongzi look dry; You can't add too much to avoid the zongzi falling apart during cooking.
5. Press down the top zongzi leaves to cover the funnel surface. Gently press down the leaves on both sides by hand and wrap them tightly. After that, the tip of the rice dumpling leaves is folded to one side.
6. Tie the zongzi with a rope. The whole process should be pressed by hand, and the glutinous rice will leak out if you are not careful.
Step 4: Boil
1. Put zongzi in the pot and pour in boiling water. The water must not cross the surface of zongzi.
2. The glutinous rice will become soft and waxy in about two hours after the fire is boiled and steamed slowly.
3. Dish and eat!
How to wrap zongzi for beginners is simple
The simplest way to wrap triangular brown. 1. Take two zongzi leaves and rub them with water, so that the tips of the two leaves are outward, overlapping and flat in your hand.
2. Pinch both ends of the leaves with both hands, and at the same time, cross and overlap inward, and fold them into a funnel shape. Then, rotate the leaves inside the funnel once, and then return to the original position, so that the funnel becomes conical.
3. first insert l chopsticks into the funnel, then fill in an appropriate amount of glutinous rice, and then poke it down with chopsticks several times to compact the glutinous rice at the tip of the cone, leaving no gaps.
4. Next, fold the two extra zongzi leaves at the top forward to cover the sticky rice on them, then pinch the middle zongzi leaves tightly, and then fold them to one side and press them.
5. Wrap the string around the corners of the zongzi several times, tightly wrap the zongzi, and tie the knot tightly at the top. (This step is very important. If the rope is not tied firmly enough, the zongzi leaves may be loosened during the cooking process, and all previous efforts will be wasted.)
The simplest wrapping method of triangular brown II
