Tips:
1. After adding lotus root flour and glutinous rice flour to boiling water, stir them well. They will stick to your hands when kneaded into a dough. Pay attention to grease or glutinous rice flour to prevent sticking.
2. The commercially available black sesame filling I used can also be made by myself; the black sesame filling will soften at room temperature and it is not easy to handle, so please refrigerate it; sugar osmanthus is sweeter, just add a little bit of flavor.
3. Weigh the glutinous rice balls, fillings, and round them, and cover them with plastic wrap. During the production process, cover the remaining parts to prevent them from drying out.
4. The prepared glutinous rice balls are sealed and stored in the refrigerator. Do not defrost before boiling, and boil them directly in boiling water. After boiling, turn to medium and low heat and continue to cook for a while until the glutinous rice balls float.
