花生汤圆 Sweet Rice Balls

Hello everyone, I'm Xiao Gao Jie. I made a black sesame glutinous rice ball recipe before. Many people commented that the glutinous rice dough is not stretchy enough. Let's take a look at how the glutinous rice dough is stretched. Mix glutinous rice flour and water directly. It cracks when you break it, and it is a bit dry, and it will fall off. No matter how good your technique is, it is difficult to make a beautiful glutinous rice ball. But we know that glutinous rice is very sticky after it is cooked. So take a small portion of glutinous rice flour and let it cook first. Press it flat to make it easier to cook. After three minutes, it is a very sticky state. Let it stick together with the remaining raw glutinous rice flour. It is a bit like wheat flour and gluten. After kneading it evenly, you see, it is like a magic trick. The glutinous rice ball will not crack at all, and it is stretchy. And the glutinous rice ball is soft and hard, and it is more useful than a rubber band. The principle of boiling glutinous rice flour in boiling water is the same. It is also to let some of the glutinous rice flour cook first. You can also combine the two methods to use. Next, we use the same method to make a colorful glutinous rice ball. A sweet vegetable, roughly chopped. Add a little water, and blend. Strain it, and weigh it. The amount of glutinous rice flour is 1.3 times of the glutinous rice flour. Mix it up. Now it is a glutinous rice ball that cracks when you break it. Take a small ball, about 20g. Don't take too much, otherwise the glutinous rice ball will be very sticky after mixing. Boil for 3 minutes, drain the water, and mix again. You see, the condition of the glutinous rice ball has completely changed. Wrap it in plastic wrap and let it sit for 30 minutes. Now let's prepare the filling. Today we are going to make brown sugar peanut filling. Add some other nuts and nuts to enrich its flavor. You can use other nuts and nuts. The rice jujube is quite hard, so we need to crush it first. Add peanuts, pecan nuts, and sugar. Keep crushing. Finally add melted butter and mix them together. This is not a star filling. If you want to make a star filling, you need to add some water. Use a small spoon to help you control the size of the filling. About the same size as a spoon. Put it in the fridge for a while. After taking it out of the fridge, the butter hardens, and the filling becomes harder. It is very easy to wrap. The two colors of glutinous rice balls are ready. Purple and white, take some and mix them together. You have the third color, light purple. You can make glutinous rice balls with these three colors separately. Let's look at two simple pattern changes. Take some of the three colors. Rub them into the same length. Roll it up. Rub it into a long shape. Cut it into a round shape. Use your thumb to press from one end of the ball. You will see a small bowl shape. Make the edge of the bowl thinner. Put the filling in. It is basically wrapped. Close the mouth. Rub it into a round shape. A few simple steps, and a three-colored glutinous rice ball is ready. Let's look at another pattern. Take four white glutinous rice balls, three purple glutinous rice balls. The white glutinous rice ball should be bigger. Press the glutinous rice ball flat. Then put the white and purple together. Cut in the middle. You can see its pattern. Rub it into a long shape. Cut it. Use the same method to wrap the glutinous rice ball. A beautiful patterned glutinous rice ball is ready. Boil the glutinous rice ball in boiling water. Cook it slowly over medium-low heat. The glutinous rice ball is cooked when it floats up. Don't overcook it, otherwise the color will be dull. Put it in a bowl. Take a bite. This glutinous rice ball is not thick at all. It is a thin layer. With sweet and fragrant brown sugar peanuts. It is both beautiful and delicious. I wish you a happy Lantern Festival. I'm Xiao Gaojie, see you next time.
