When I was a child every year on Ching Ming Festival, my family always steamed a pot of five-color glutinous rice. The rice was colored with purple vine, yellow flower, maple leaf, and gardenia. After steaming, it was not only colorful, but also fresh and sweet. The five-color glutinous rice symbolizes abundance of grains and a happy life. When I grow up, I’m far away from home. I don’t have the raw materials for the five-color glutinous rice. Food coloring is absolutely impossible. I just have a few boxes of freeze-dried dried fruits on hand. If the natural colors are available, then make a pot of fruity Five-color glutinous rice~"

Ingredients

Five-color Fruity Glutinous Rice

1. Prepare raw materials: glutinous rice, freeze-dried pumpkin, freeze-dried strawberries, freeze-dried blueberries, fresh mulberries, glutinous rice is washed, and the mulberries are washed and set aside;

2. Roll freeze-dried strawberries, freeze-dried pumpkins, and freeze-dried blueberries into powder for later use. Add a little water to mulberries and crush them with a blender;

3. Add the freeze-dried strawberry powder, freeze-dried blueberry powder and freeze-dried pumpkin powder to the appropriate amount of water and stir evenly, soak the same amount of glutinous rice into the liquid for coloring, and add the same amount of glutinous rice to the mulberry juice for coloring;

4. After soaking for 3 hours, drain the glutinous rice with a spoon and check the coloring. If it is not ideal, soak it for a while;

5. Drain the colored glutinous rice, spread steamed gauze underneath, put it in a steamer, and steam until it is soft and glutinous. After steaming, place it on a plate.

Tips:
What I do here is enough for a family to eat, everyone can eat too little to reduce the amount of glutinous rice; the dried freeze-dried fruit does not need to be too fine, because after rehydration, even if the powder is not so broken, it will not affect the rehydration ; After coloring, the rice can be drained. Some dried fruit will not be affected at the end of the year, but the taste will be better;
