3. Boil white glutinous corn and put it into cold water for 25 minutes. Due to its high starch content, white glutinous corn is difficult to cook. It is recommended to cook it for at least 25 minutes before eating.

4. Cook in a rice cooker, minus about 5 minutes for each of the above bases. Because the rice cooker itself has high pressure, the cooking time can be reduced by 5 minutes.

5. Cook in a pressure cooker. The above bases can be reduced by 10 minutes. Because the pressure cooker pressure is very high, the heating is also very fast and stable. Usually corn can be cooked in 6 minutes.
