- Tips -

Newly made glutinous rice balls are best. If they are frozen, it is best not to eat them a long time ago. The fresher the better. Also, don’t wait too long before cooking the frozen glutinous rice balls. Just take them out before cooking. In addition, it is important to keep the water boiling but not boiling during the cooking process to ensure that the glutinous rice balls are plump and round.
