It is very convenient to make distiller’s lees by yourself. The prepared distiller’s lees can be used to make distiller’s rice wine and poached eggs. I usually use pearl rice to make rice wine. I use it to make distiller’s lees when I cook rice. Although the glutinous rice has a better taste, the rice will come back to life after one day. When you eat it, it always feels like eating raw rice. "

Ingredients

Some Leftover Rice
2 bags Angel Sweet Liquor

Fermented Lees

1. Normally, the rice you eat at home should be cooked more when cooking. Before cooking, wash your hands and the rice cooker so that it does not get oily, and then wash the rice to cook. The oily sake lees will grow black hair and spoil when it is made. The rice I used today is about three or four bowls of rice for two people. There are only two packs of sweet koji. When the rice is cooked and can’t be eaten until it’s not hot, use a rice shovel to disperse the rice, sprinkle a pack of Angel's sweet koji on the rice in the rice cooker, wear disposable gloves to use the rice and koji Mix evenly by hand. Grab some rice grains with your hands and observe to see if they are evenly coated with sweet sake koji powder.

2. I chose this kind of sweet koji, and it seems that Anqi has another flavor type. I have never used it and I don’t know if it tastes good or not. If you want something sweeter, put an extra pack. Take a clean, water-free and oil-free porcelain soup pot, spread a layer of sweet koji on the bottom of the porcelain basin, and then spread a layer of mixed rice, then sprinkle a layer of koji on the rice, and then spread a layer of rice , And then sprinkle the sake koji until all the rice is covered with sweet koji.

3. Prepare a small half bowl and let it boil. Use gloved hands while dipping the rice with cold boiled water and press the rice firmly until the rice is firm. Then poke a hole in the middle to ferment the wine. After making it, sprinkle the remaining cold water on the rice.

4. Cover with plastic wrap and leave it to ferment in the quilt in the closet at home. Generally, one or two days of hot weather will do.

5. If the observation hole is full of wine, it means that the fermentation is complete. The prepared distillers grains can be boiled in distilled rice balls, eaten directly in this way, or made poached eggs on distilled grains.

6. If you want to drink rice wine, you can add a pack of sweet koji when making it. Then the fermented lees can be uncovered and sprinkle half a bowl to a bowl of cold water and then cover with plastic wrap to ferment for a day, and then you can drink the sweet home-brewed rice wine.

7. The fermented rice wine is covered with plastic wrap and can be stored in the refrigerator for several days, so that the rice wine is cold and delicious.
