Sticky Rice

Sticky Rice

1. Soak the glutinous rice a day in advance

2. The dates should also be cleaned in advance and soak for a while, but the dates don’t need to be soaked for too long, just soak for 3 to 4 hours.

3. Take a large bowl, drain the soaked glutinous rice, put half of the glutinous rice on the bottom of the bowl, and compact it a little

4. Then take the jujubes out of the water, remove the jujube core in the middle, spread the jujubes evenly in the big bowl with the glutinous rice already pressed at the bottom, and cover the layer of glutinous rice with the jujubes

5. Then cover the rest of the glutinous rice on the paved jujube and steam it in the pot. After the water in the pot is boiled, steam for about 30 minutes until the glutinous rice is soft and waxy.

6. After cooling down, take out the big bowl, buckle a plate on the bowl, buckle it upside down, unmold, and cut it when you eat it. If you like sweet friends, eat it with sugar

Tips:

1. I chose round glutinous rice, but there are many kinds of glutinous rice, including round glutinous rice, long glutinous rice, etc. Relatively speaking, round glutinous rice tastes softer and glutinous than long glutinous rice, so I like to eat sticky glutinous rice. Friends can consider choosing round glutinous rice, otherwise choose long glutinous rice;
2. The soaking time of glutinous rice is actually very random, ranging from 2 to 4 hours for soaking to 1 day for soaking. That is because it can be compensated in the later processing. For example, for glutinous rice that has not been soaked, it can be considered longer. Time steaming or relying on the power of a pressure cooker to soften glutinous rice. If the glutinous rice is soaked for a long time and in place, it can be steamed for a short time. The glutinous rice will become soft and glutinous, so you can adjust it yourself;
3. This glutinous rice is made without any sugar. It is purely based on the sweetness of dates. But if you like sweet friends add some sugar and eat it with it, it will be more delicious, and the taste can be made at will.
