Method 1 of Osmanthus Jelly:

Ingredients:

9g of glutinous rice flour, 27g of sticky rice (rice) flour, 16g of warm water, 75g of fine sugar or powdered sugar, 1g of fresh osmanthus fragrans, and 1 tablespoon of sweet osmanthus

Method of making:

1. First, prepare the ingredients used, sticky. If you think the quantity is large, you can use a six-inch mold in half.

2. Put glutinous rice flour, sticky rice flour and fine sugar into a large bowl and mix the three ingredients together. Fine sugar can also be replaced by powdered sugar, which is more convenient to sieve.

3. Pour warm water into the powder, stir while pouring, and mix the powder evenly.

4. If the mixed powder is caked, continue to rub it evenly and crush it by hand to make it all powder.

5. Sieve the dough with a fine sieve of 2 meshes to form powder. This step is a bit painful. Take your time. Only the sieved powder and steamed Osmanthus Jelly will be soft and fluffy.

6. Spoon the sieved powder into the mold, or pour it directly into the mold gently, and smooth the top with a scraper, being careful not to use force, but gently.

7. Put cold water into the pot, boil it in a big fire and put it into a steamer. After steaming for 3 minutes in a big fire, open the lid and take out the mold. Be careful not to burn it. Cover the lid and steam for 13 minutes. Turn off the fire and take out the pot. The height of the mold I use is 5 cm. If your mold is less than 4 cm, the time is shorter, just 12 minutes. Steamed Osmanthus Jelly, put it on a cooling rack to dissipate the heat. I forgot to take a picture of the pot.

8. When it is warm, you should cut it into small pieces with a knife. If you are afraid of cutting it badly, you can make a mark with cotton thread, so you can cut it neatly. Put the sweet osmanthus in a paper bag, squeeze it on the top of the Osmanthus Jelly, and sprinkle a little fresh osmanthus for decoration.

9. Steamed Osmanthus Jelly is soft and delicious. If it can't be eaten all at once, it should be sealed in time to prevent air drying and cracking.

Tips:

1. Osmanthus Jelly's method is simple, but many people have no patience for sieving. Everyone must remember that this step can't be omitted. You can use a thicker sieve or not.

2. When Osmanthus Jelly cuts, many people say that it can be cut in advance when serving, so that the finished product is more beautiful. I will forget it every time. I must try it next time.

Osmanthus Jelly Method 2:

Step 1: Prepare raw materials.

① Remove the redundant roots and branches from the fresh osmanthus fragrans, only keep the flowers, then clean the flowers, and finally make them into dried osmanthus fragrans, which can be dried in the sun or naturally dried.

② prepare these materials: sticky rice flour, glutinous rice flour, white sugar, water and honey.

step 2: make sweet osmanthus powder and cake.

① dry osmanthus fragrans and white sugar are mixed and ground into powder to make sweet osmanthus fragrans powder.

② Mix sticky rice flour, glutinous rice flour and white sugar evenly, then add white sugar, and then add a small amount of water several times until the powder presents a granular shape.

Step 3: Sieve the powder cake to restore the delicate taste.

① Prepare a fine sieve, the finer the better, the thickness of the sieve here will directly affect the taste of the final Osmanthus Jelly; Prepare a small shovel or a scraper as a screening tool.

② sieve all the powder cakes, preferably several times and twice, so that the powder is more delicate and tastes better.

step 4: steam in the pan.

① Wet the clean gauze, squeeze out the excess water, spread the gauze evenly on the steamer, and lay the periphery of the gauze evenly, which is convenient for Osmanthus Jelly to finalize the design.

② put some of the sieved cake into the steamer, which is about half of the steamer.

③ Gently smooth the surface of the powder cake with a scraper without pressing, which will make the powder more unevenly distributed.

④ sprinkle a layer of sweet osmanthus powder, scrape it flat, then put the powder cake again until the steamer is full of molds, scrape it flat, cover it gently with gauze on the side to prevent water dripping, and steam it on high fire for 4 minutes.

step 5: taking out the pot and demoulding.

① After Osmanthus Jelly is out of the pot, sprinkle a layer of dried osmanthus on it to excite the fragrance of osmanthus while it is hot, then demould and cut it into the desired shape.

② When eating, you can also sprinkle some honey on it, which is more sweet and moist.
