The "Amaranth Rice" made by Cocoa today is not made from the red amaranth he likes, but green amaranth. This is because the last time I bought too much amaranth, I blanched it and put it in the refrigerator. This time When I saw it, I made rice with green amaranth (actually wild amaranth). This is a vegetable rice. The difference is that there is no fried amaranth, and no oil and salt. It is just steamed directly, so that the rice and wild amaranth are de-sugar processed It is relatively low in sugar and fat. It can be eaten even by people with high blood sugar. Especially now it is autumn. It is relatively dry. Amaranth has the functions of clearing heat and removing dampness, cooling blood and stopping bleeding, and stopping diarrhea. Eating more of this staple food is really weight loss and autumn prevention. Dry.

Ingredients

300g Rice
300g Wild Amaranth

Amaranth Rice

1. Main ingredients: 300 grams of rice Accessories: 200 grams of wild amaranth (already blanched)

2. Wash the rice and soak in cold water for 30 minutes to make the rice more fragrant. Wash and cut the blanched wild amaranth.

3. Pour the soaked rice and chopped wild amaranth into the Zhenmi de-sweetened rice cooker, then add water. Note that because it is made of de-sweetened rice, the rice soup needs to be separated, and the low-sugar rice is steamed to reach the upper rice and lower soup status. Therefore, the amount of water added is slightly more than usual, so that the reducing sugar content in the rice is reduced to 16.0mg/100g, which is about 50% lower than that of ordinary rice.

4. Close the lid of the rice cooker, turn on the power, and start the "rice" mode; the system default time is 22 minutes, which is considered a super fast rice cooker. It saves time and electricity, and is very suitable for office workers.

5. Zhenmi desugared rice cooker started working

6. When the time is up, the rice cooker will sound and the rice is ready; if you like to eat harder rice, you can serve it immediately, or keep it warm for about 15 minutes to make the rice more fragrant and soft. The grains of rice are distinct and chewy. It contains both rice and green wild amaranth, which has a richer nutritious taste.

7. Take out the rice soup box and see that half of the box is thick with rice soup. This is because the rice soup is completely separated from the rice, which takes away a lot of starch. The steamed rice is low in sugar and healthier.

8. The fragrant and delicious, well-defined rice has been de-sweetened, so don’t worry. Use this Zhenmi desugared rice cooker. By changing the digestive properties of starch in rice, the content of resistant starch is increased by about 23%, which reduces the digestion speed of rice, thereby reducing the sugar level of rice. It is very suitable for people who exercise and lose weight and those who are more sensitive to blood sugar.

Tips:
1. Wild amaranth can also be treated without blanching, it is best to use fresh and tender and delicious
2. The wild amaranth is cut a little bit smaller and delicious, and garnished with rice is delicious and beautiful
