Tips:
Xiaoyingzi's words:
1. The glutinous rice must be soaked enough, at least 12 hours. If you want to soak in glutinous rice, you can soak for 2 days. Change the water frequently during the period
2. The ribs or meat should not be too small, otherwise you won’t be able to eat the meat after it’s cooked.
3. Pickled in advance to taste, it should be saltier than the usual dishes. The amount of seasoning is for reference only, don't copy it, or add it according to your own preferences.
