Why is glutinous rice lotus root red? It is because there is sweet-scented osmanthus sugar, so it is made red.
Specific steps:
1. Wash the lotus root, cut off one end of the lotus root node (the lotus root node is reserved for use) to expose the lotus root hole, then wash the sediment in the hole, drain the water, and mash the crystal sugar for use.
2. Wash the glutinous rice, dry the water, pour the glutinous rice from the incision of lotus root, plug the end with bamboo chopsticks, then close the cut lotus root nodes at the incision, and then tie them tightly with a small bamboo stick to prevent rice leakage.
3. Use a casserole or copper pot (don't use an iron pot, otherwise it will affect the quality), first use lotus roots filled with rice, and then add water. If the water doesn't pass the lotus root, cook it with high fire first, and then with low fire. When the lotus root is boiled to 50% heat, add a little alkali to continue cooking until the lotus root turns red, take it out and let it cool.
4. Put a piece of clean oil on a bowl mat, peel the lotus root, cut off both ends, cut into round cakes with a thickness of 1.5 cm, buckle them into a bowl, add white sugar, rock sugar and sweet-scented osmanthus sugar, cover with clean oil, steam them in a cage until the rock sugar is completely dissolved, take them out, remove the clean oil residue and sweet-scented osmanthus residue, and then transfer them into a pot to remove the clean oil residue on the surface.

How many days can glutinous rice lotus root be stored? The fresh-keeping layer is about 72 hours in this season. The frozen layer can be kept frozen for a long time according to the temperature.
After vacuum packaging, it can be stored for 1 to 2 years, but it cannot be stored at room temperature. Vacuum packaging itself can not extend the shelf life, but can only be isolated. For example, the vacuum-packed food in supermarkets is sterilized after vacuum packaging, and the food itself is sterile. Vacuum packaging isolates bacteria from oxygen, so bacteria can't reproduce in the bag, and the shelf life is prolonged.
