Rice is a crop in the south and northeast of China with high yield. It is a staple food in many parts of China. Many people eat rice every day and every meal, but they still don't feel tired. It can be said that rice is common, but it is indispensable. Rice appears on our daily table almost every day, or steamed into dried rice or boiled into porridge soup. Rice porridge, which I believe everyone is familiar with, is an important seasoning on our table. Rice can be made into porridge alone or cooked with other grains and beans, the most famous of which is eight-treasure porridge.
Next, Bian Xiao will talk to you about snacks made of rice. One of the most famous is the rice cake, which melts in the mouth, soft and fragrant. The rice cake is a sweet and delicious snack made by grinding rice into rice slurry, adding yeast and sugar, fermenting and steaming in a steamer, which is really attractive. Besides rice cakes, rice can also be used to make sticky rice strips. Glutinous rice strips are made by mixing rice and black rice and frying them. Wash the two kinds of rice, drain the water, pour them into the oil pan and fry them into popcorn. Then boil the sugar into syrup, pour the popcorn, stir well, and finally pour it into the mold. After cooling, the sticky rice strips are finished. Besides being a snack, rice can also be a drink, which is a very famous rice wine. Rice wine is a daily drink made by every household in the south, which can be drunk directly or used as seasoning.
Rice can not only fill the stomach, but also comfort the tired family. Snacks made from rice can bring people a full sense of happiness. Rice, a low-key but connotative ingredient, has always been with us.
