——Start making delicious food——
1. Peel the taro and cut into small cubes. We first prepare the taro grains. Clean the taro, peel it, cut it into thick slices first, then cut it into strips, and then cut it into 1 cm cubes. You can also cut it into long strips, but they should be thinner. , cut and set aside. ——For the taro here, it is best to choose the big fragrant taro. This will make the taro cake more pink, waxy and fragrant. And when peeling, there will be some mucus in the taro skin, which is slippery. Some people have sensitive skin and may feel itchy, so it is best to wear a pair of gloves when peeling, just in case. By the way, the same situation will occur when peeling yam, so it is still necessary to prepare a pair of kitchen gloves!
2. Prepare the ingredients. Soak the dried shiitake mushrooms in water in advance, cut off the stems, and then cut the shiitake mushrooms into small dices; cut the sausages in half, then divide them into two halves, and cut them into diced sausages; wash the dried shrimps with water, drain the water and set aside spare. These are the most basic ingredients. Of course, if your home has better conditions, you can also add some soaked dried scallops, dried bacon, etc., and the taste will be richer!
3. Prepare rice milk. Prepare a deeper basin, pour in the weighed rice flour and corn starch, stir evenly with chopsticks, then slowly add warm water while stirring, and stir until there are no particles in the rice milk and it becomes smooth rice milk water. When you lift the chopsticks, the rice milk in the mouth of the chopsticks will fall down quickly. Just adjust it to this state! ——Of course, the water absorption of rice flour will be somewhat different, so be sure to add warm water slowly to avoid mixing it too thinly!
4. Fry the ingredients. Prepare a wok, heat the wok to 80% heat, add a little peanut oil, pour in the diced sausage, turn to medium-low heat and fry slowly until the sausage turns translucent, it smells particularly delicious! Then pour the dried shrimps and shiitake mushrooms into the pot and stir-fry together. Then pour the taro pieces into the pot, stir evenly, and stir-fry until half-cooked. Finally, season, add an appropriate amount of salt, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce for freshness. Stir together again and finally turn off the heat. ——Note, don’t add too much salt here, because the sausage and dried shrimps themselves are salty, so don’t add too much.
5. Mix ingredients. After preparing the rice milk water, gently pour the rice milk water into the pot where the ingredients were fried in step 4, and stir while pouring. The rice milk water will solidify quickly when heated, so the stirring action should be faster. Mix the rice milk with the sausage pellets, shiitake mushrooms, dried shrimps and other ingredients in the pot evenly, then put it into a steaming tray prepared in advance. In order to prevent it from sticking to the bottom, you can first rinse some oil in the steaming tray. Press the taro cake firmly with your hands or a shovel so that it doesn't fall apart after steaming.
6. Steam in boiling water. Boil a pot of water in advance, put the taro cake into the water to steam, turn on high heat and steam for 35 minutes, then insert chopsticks into the taro cake. When you pull it out, there is no paste sticking to the chopsticks, which means the taro cake has been steamed! ——Note, it is best to add enough water at one time, otherwise adding water on the way will affect the taste of the taro cake. If the taro cake is really not cooked yet and there is no water in the pot, it is best to add hot water at this time.
Take out the steamed taro cake and let it cool, then unmold it, cut it into the shape you like, and you can eat it directly! Take a bite, it's pink, glutinous and salty, it's really delicious! If you are afraid of cooling it overnight, you can also put it in a pan and fry it until both sides are golden brown, which makes it look more attractive! ——Summary——
