Tips:
1. When making pumpkin puree, if there is no cooking machine, you can also directly use a spoon to press it into puree;
2. Bean paste filling can also be replaced with jujube paste filling;
3. Be patient when filling the stuffing. Pumpkin dough is easy to rot, so the technique must be light, so as not to smash it accidentally;
4. Pumpkin glutinous rice balls should not be cooked for too long. If they rise, they will be cooked. If they are cooked for a long time, they will be easily boiled;
