The skin of hearts is made of rice flour made of rice and rouge rice. There are usually two flavors of hearts, one is filled with bean paste, and the other is filled with glutinous rice.
Let's talk about the production process of glutinous rice! Stir-fry mushrooms, sausages, peanuts, shrimp skins and other materials with stuffy glutinous rice, then take a lump of glutinous rice skin, put the fragrant glutinous rice in the skin, pinch it without leaving any gap and press it on the skin, and a red glutinous peach is finished. After steaming in the pot, you can enjoy the delicious red peach with glutinous rice flavor.
The production process of bean paste flavor is much more complicated than glutinous rice flavor. Soak the beans in water until the skin of the beans can be peeled off, then put the beans in a container to turn them into mud, and finally boil them in a pot and add sugar. This is the process of making the bean paste trap. The following steps taste the same as glutinous rice. The hearts filled with bean paste are soft and sweet.
