Take my own experience to say that the north likes to eat sweet rice dumplings, and the south likes to eat salty rice dumplings. Like meat rice dumplings, the wrapping method is the same but the fillings are different. Follow my steps to make a delicious and beautiful rice dumplings.

How to make red bean rice dumplings:

Preparation: Soak the red beans in cold water for more than 8 hours in advance and soak the glutinous rice 4 hours in advance (if you like a firmer texture, you don’t have to soak the glutinous rice) ), then mix them together and set aside (the red beans must be completely soaked to make them easier to cook)

Soak the rice dumpling leaves in advance and wash them clean, and cut the cotton thread into the length required for bandaging and set aside (fresh rice dumpling leaves are not harvested) It is very clean. Boiling it in advance can sterilize and clean it better. Moreover, the rice dumpling leaves will become softer and more flexible, making it easier to wrap. However, some people think that the fragrance of the cooked leaves will be slightly weaker, so it is better not to cook them. Yes, it depends on what you like~)

Making rice dumplings: Roll up the rice dumpling leaves into a funnel shape (if it is not big enough, you can overlap two rice dumpling leaves)
