In October, Flowers went to the school several times to teach parent-child baking lessons. I remember last year, on a snowy day, I taught baking class, although it was very hard, but I saw the teacher and the child follow the seriousness of learning, and the scene can bake delicious biscuits or cakes, a satisfactory smile, so that the flowers are also very happy.
This year, however, due to limited space, several classes were held in the school. That variety of baking tools and ovens, operated in schools, are not very convenient or safe. To this end, Hua'er specially made some delicacies that do not require an oven, and only need an induction cooker to make heating. This crystal osmanthus yokan is a delicious and healthy dessert.
Many friends, when they were young, ate yokan soup. Yokan soup is a famous Japanese refreshment. It is said that it was originally transmitted to Japan from China and turned out to be very popular in Japan. After several evolutions, it has been transmitted back to China from Japan and has become a special snack that domestic, especially Beijingers, like.
The earliest Chinese yokan did have "sheep", which was a soup made of sheep. After it spread to Japan, it had no relationship with sheep and became a pastry made of red beans. Yokan has evolved, and so are the flavors and ingredients used to make it. In addition to red beans, you can also make chestnuts, hawthorns, peas and other flavors. Late autumn, it is the season to taste osmanthus flowers, we are on the basis of traditional yokan, and then add osmanthus flowers, the taste is less sweet, more fresh and fragrant.
Ingredients required:
Sugar osmanthus flowers: 70 g
Agar: 4 g
Water: 260 g
Cooked red beans: 360 g
Brown rice: 20 g
Caster sugar: 60 g
Agar: 8 g
Remarks: Here is a first explanation:
The original formula is to use red bean paste, but Hua'er as a nutritionist, I hope that more mothers can make healthy food for their families, red bean paste we do not have to buy outside, if you feel that you are also troublesome. Then use our boiled red bean porridge, add some brown rice, thicken with sugar, and the taste is also particularly praised after coagulation. And Hua'er found that adding brown rice not only has the effect of increasing dietary fiber and improving gastrointestinal peristalsis, but also brown rice is very strong, and after making yokan, the taste is particularly praised.
method:
1. 8 grams of agar is divided into equal portions (which will be placed in osmanthus soup and yokan soup for a while), soaked in cold water to soften, and then pour out the water to squeeze the agar dry. Agar is more easily dissolved in hot water after soaking.
2, let's make crystal osmanthus soup first. Pour water and sugar osmanthus flowers into the pot and bring to a boil.
3: Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, add the agar, continue to cook for 2-3 minutes, stir continuously when cooking, until the agar is completely melted, then turn off the heat.
4, pour the osmanthus soup into the bowl, across the cold water, not called stirring to warm, become viscous warm but not solidified state is the most appropriate, then pour into the mold you prepared. You can't overcool, so you can't pour out the solidification. Of course, if it solidifies, go and heat it up.
5, after putting into the mold, room temperature (that is, room temperature) for 1 hour, it will solidify into a crystal osmanthus soup, do not enter the refrigerator.
6. Then start making red bean yokan. Bring water to a boil in a pot and add the soaked agar. Stir constantly and turn on for 2-3 minutes until the agar is completely melted.
7: Put in the viscous bean porridge (otherwise the bean paste filling is OK, then don't put sugar), stir well and turn off the heat.
8, the same cold water cooling, and stirring. Warm to 50 degrees.
9: Then pour in the osmanthus soup you just made, refrigerate for 1 hour, and you can eat.
10. After solidification, the buckle is reversed, and it is easy to release the mold.
Cut through the cross-section, you can see the large particles of red beans and brown rice inside, so it is much better to eat than filling with bean paste, and it is healthier, you can try it.
