The first way: Cutting glutinous rice cakes

Cutting cakes, the methods and ingredients are different in different places. Below, I will introduce to you the ones made with red dates and glutinous rice. The method is very suitable for home production. You only need a crisper to make a neatly cut cake.

Specific preparation method

The first step: prepare the ingredients. 600 grams of glutinous rice and 300 grams of red dates. (It is best to choose round glutinous rice, so that it tastes softer and glutinous.)

Step 2: Soak the red dates for 30 minutes and set aside.

Step 3: Wash the glutinous rice and add a small amount of water. Place in a steamer and steam over high heat for 25 minutes. (Due to time constraints, I did not soak the glutinous rice in advance. If you have soaked the glutinous rice in advance, the amount of water will be reduced accordingly when steaming.)

Step 4: After steaming, use chopsticks Stir the glutinous rice until it becomes sticky, then cover the pot and steam for 20 minutes. Finally, turn off the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. The glutinous rice is ready.

Step 5: Put the red dates in the pot and cook for 15 minutes, then remove and set aside.

Step 6: Take a plastic wrap and put a layer of plastic wrap inside. Then, put on gloves once and spread the glutinous rice evenly on the bottom of the box, as shown in the picture. It should be about 2 cm thick.

Step 8: Spread another layer of glutinous rice, a layer of red dates, and a layer of glutinous rice until everything is installed. Cover the surface with plastic wrap, as shown in the picture.

Step 9: Find a heavy object to compact the cut cake. (Because I couldn’t find a weight of the right size, I filled some water into a plastic bag and pressed it on the cut cake. The effect was good.)

Step 10: When eating , put some water on the knife, and then you can cut the cake easily. (Sprinkle some sugar before eating after refrigerating, it will taste better~)

If you use dried rice dumpling leaves, be sure to soak them in advance before cooking.) < /p>

Step 4: Soak the dates for 1-2 hours in advance, then drain the water and set aside.

Step 5: Start making rice dumplings. Take two rice dumpling leaves and cut off the hard corner at one end, as shown in the picture.

Soft and glutinous. The glutinous rice cake is sprinkled with soybean flour and dipped in brown sugar juice. One bite is full of satisfaction and happiness.

The first step: prepare the ingredients. 400g glutinous rice, 100g cooked soybean flour, 50g brown sugar.

Step 2: Soak the glutinous rice in advance.

A few more words:

1. It is best to choose round glutinous rice, which has better stickiness.

2. If the glutinous rice has been soaked for a long time in advance, it will be completely soft and can be easily crushed by hand. Then, when steaming, you can drain the water, put the glutinous rice directly on the steaming cloth to steam, and just pour water on the rice once or twice during the process. If the soaking time is not enough, it is best to add more water when steaming. Due to time constraints, I only soaked the glutinous rice for two hours today. So, while steaming, I put some water into the basin. If you are really pressed for time, you can put the glutinous rice directly into the rice cooker to steam it as you usually do with steamed rice. After steaming, mash it for a while, and the effect will be good.

3. For soybean flour, I use ready-made cooked soybean flour. Dear friends, you can also fry the soybeans and then grind them into powder in a food processor. You can also add some peanuts to make it taste better.
