Basic rules
Seasoning of rice dumpling fillings: To make bacon rice dumplings, mix fresh pork with a little MSG, sugar, wine, salt, and light soy sauce and rub it repeatedly until the seasoning Pour into the pork and wrap.
Bundling of rice dumplings: Rice dumplings with bean paste should not be tied too tightly to prevent the rice grains from being squeezed into the bean paste. If the rice dumplings are not cooked thoroughly, they will be caught. If the bacon rice dumplings are made from fatty pork, they should not be tied tightly, but should be loosely and appropriately loose. If you use lean pork, you need to tie it tightly, because the lean meat will shrink when cooked, and the fat juice of the rice dumpling filling will leak into the water, which will not maintain the fatness of the rice dumplings.
Cooking of rice dumplings: When boiling rice dumplings, the water must boil before dropping the rice dumplings. The water must soak the rice dumpling noodles. After the water boils again, cook over high heat for about 3 hours. Do not add raw water during the cooking process. Please note that Jianshui rice dumplings cannot be cooked with other rice dumplings. After cooking, take it out while it's hot.
Open the rice dumpling leaves when eating. The rice dumplings are fragrant, oily but not greasy in the mouth, glutinous but not sticky, moderately salty and sweet, tender and delicious, which is the top grade.
