【five-spice Egg Yolk Meat Dumplings】——a Love Gift for The Family on The Dragon Boat Festival
1.
1 piece of pork belly, peeled, washed and cut into long pieces. Add salt, southern milk, five-spice powder, two slices of ginger, corn starch, light soy sauce, oil, sesame oil, seasoning
2.
Stir well with chopsticks, cover and store in the refrigerator for one to two days.
3.
Preparation: red and green beans, peanuts,
4.
Soak it with water overnight, soak it overnight
5.
Rinse with water the next morning until the water is white as well, then pick it up and put it in dry water
6.
The glutinous rice was soaked in cold water overnight, washed with clean water the next morning, and then picked up and put in dry water
7.
Put beans, peanuts and glutinous rice on a plate, add five-spice powder, lye, salt, peanut oil, light soy sauce
8.
Stir them with a spoon and let them sit for a few hours to taste.
9.
Soak the mushrooms in water, wash and cut into slices, add a little salt and oil to taste.
10.
Put the seasoned shiitake mushrooms into the glutinous rice and beans, and mix well.
11.
Crack the salted eggs, save only the yolks, and cut each in half.
12.
Take the prepared pork belly out of the refrigerator.
13.
The zongzi leaves were also soaked in water overnight, and then dried slightly after washing. When making zongzi, first take two leaves and stack them together.
14.
Then the two leaves are folded into a funnel shape (I wrapped the triangular long rice dumplings at the bottom)
15.
Spoon half a spoon of rice dumplings, then add a piece of pork belly, and put half of the egg yolk on top of the rice.
16.
Then cover the egg yolk meat with half a spoon of beans and rice, wrap the surrounding leaves, if the leaves are not wide enough, add the appropriate amount of leaves.
17.
After wrapping, tie a few knots with rope, but wrap it tightly and don't break the leaves. When it is loose and broken, the rice will leak out when cooking, which will affect the appearance and taste.
18.
Wrapped raw rice dumplings.
19.
Take the inner pot of the pressure cooker, put the rice dumplings in, add enough water, add the lid and cook for about two hours, until the rice and beans are all rotten.
20.
When it's done, take out two rice dumplings and take them apart to check if they are sufficiently cooked.
21.
Taken apart, the glutinous rice and beans have been fused together, and this effect is already okay.
Tips:
1: According to past experience, it is better to soak the rice and beans that make zongzi in water first, and the zongzi will have a tough taste if it has not been soaked in water.
2: When cooking zongzi, if you are worried that there is not enough water, you can turn off the power and exhaust the pot halfway, and open it to see if you need to add water.
3: Put cold rice dumplings, steam them again or take them apart and fry them when you eat them. Or fried and eaten, the flavor is different.
