Dumplings with Chinese Dates, Goji Berries and Fermented Grains recipe

2. Remove the stems of the red dates and clean them. Use a knife to remove the jujube cores and cut them into red date slices. They are easy to taste when boiled. The wolfberry is relatively small and does not need to be soaked. Rinse it with water; the starch is hydrated for use.

3. When the ingredients are ready, you can start the pot to boil water. Add appropriate amount of drinking water to the pot according to the number of people in the family, and put the red jujube slices and wolfberry into the pot and bring to a boil.

4. Boil the water until it boils, put the dumplings in the pot, stir gently with a spoon to prevent sticking to the pot. The glutinous rice balls are generally frozen and more resistant to cooking. During the process of cooking the glutinous rice balls, the nutrition of the red dates and wolfberry is basically integrated into the soup, so the red dates do not need to be stewed separately for too long.

5. I used a small crystal glutinous rice ball. After the pot was turned on, I saw the glutinous rice ball gradually floated, indicating that it was cooked. The cooked glutinous rice balls are crystal clear, and the fillings can be seen directly through the skin, which is very attractive.

6. Cook the glutinous rice balls until they float, pour the prepared glutinous rice into the pot, stir thoroughly with a spoon to let the glutinous rice blend into the soup. Then the water starch is poured into the pot in a circle, and the soup of the glutinous rice balls becomes rich in an instant.

7. Pour the rich and sweet sweet-scented osmanthus before serving to add icing to this pot of red dates, wolfberry mash and glutinous rice balls. how about it? Does it look more delicious than glutinous rice balls cooked in water? Is it super simple? As smart as you, you will see it at first glance. Let’s make a fine glutinous rice dumpling for the family during the Lantern Festival! No matter how simple the dish is soaked in the taste of love, it will become delicious. If you don't believe it, try it!

Tips:
1. If you have time, you can make glutinous rice flour by yourself at home. If you don’t have time to make it, you can just buy the quick-frozen glutinous rice flour and cook it back as I did. When cooking glutinous rice balls, the fire should not be too high, so as not to boil the glutinous rice balls and leak the filling.
2. Generally, the glutinous rice that you buy can't be eaten at one time, so after opening, use a clean spoon to fill the amount for a single consumption, and cover the bottle tightly to avoid the smell.
3. The glutinous rice is cooked. If the rice wine is cooked too early, the taste of the rice wine will be weak. After the glutinous rice balls are boiled, add the glutinous rice.
4. Friends who like sweeter can add a little sugar osmanthus, or beat a frangipani to make the flavor richer.
5. Although glutinous rice dumplings are delicious and sweet, try not to eat too much. Elderly children and people with weak spleen and stomach should not eat more.
