Introduction: How many minutes to cook tangyuan? Cold water or boiling water into the pot? Remember these 3 points, the tangyuan is softer and more sticky!
Tomorrow will be the fifteenth Lantern Festival of the first month, the Lantern Festival is also called "Lantern Festival" and "Shangyuan Festival", when I was a child, I often heard my grandmother say: After the Lantern Festival, the New Year is really over. After the Lantern Festival, adults also began to be busy with farm work in the mountains, and children also had to carry school bags to school, so on the day of the Lantern Festival, children would play freely ~ guess the riddles, enjoy the lanterns, set off fireworks...
Adults are generally busy wrapping tangyuan and making tangyuan, because on the evening of the Lantern Festival, every household wants to eat tangyuan, which means that the family is reunited and happy! Now the standard of living has improved, people rarely make their own tangyuan, generally buy ready-made tangyuan back to cook, the supermarket in the tangyuan tastes a variety, dazzling, there are fruit filling, sesame filling, and even ham and meat stuffing, bought back tangyuan, many friends do not know how long to cook, do not know what kind of cooked, often either cooked, sticky teeth are not delicious, or cooked for a long time, cooked into a pot of porridge, the following I will share the tips of cooking tangyuan:
【Boiled rice balls】:
1. First open the frozen tangyuan bag and let it sit for about 5 minutes, this step is to naturally thaw the tangyuan to prevent the tangyuan from freezing too hard, and the water is instantly cracked by the impact.
2. Add water to the pot, boil the water to 70 ~ 80 degrees from the dense bubbles into the tangyuan, cook the tangyuan neither open the underwater pot nor do not cool the underwater pot, open the pot under the pot, the impact of the boiling water is too strong, the temperature difference between the water and the tangyuan is too large, which will cause the tangyuan to crack; and the cold water boiling tangyuan, the tangyuan soaked in the water for too long is also easy to break the skin.
3. Boiling tangyuan is similar to boiling dumplings, do not open the fire to cook all the time, in order to make it heated evenly and the taste is delicious, in the process of cooking, point into cold water, about the whole process of boiling the tangyuan three open, point twice water, see the tangyuan are all floating up, the tangyuan will be cooked, turn off the heat to put out can be opened to eat.
The time to cook tangyuan depends on the heat and the size of the tangyuan, generally small tangyuan or medium tangyuan are boiled on high heat, it takes about 5 minutes, and if it is cooked with warm fire, the tangyuan may be 7 to 10 minutes, the simplest way to judge whether the tangyuan is cooked or what I said above is "point twice water, cook three open, see the tangyuan all float up and cooked"
If you want to cook tangyuan soft and delicious without breaking the skin, keeping in mind the above 3 points is the key: 1. Thaw first; 2. Warm underwater pot: 3. Point water. By doing these 3 things, you can cook a soft and delicious tangyuan that does not break the skin.
In addition, I would like to share with you a more delicious way to cook the dumplings: when cooking the dumplings, we take a bowl of soybeans and wash them, pour them into the pot and stir-fry, fry until the soybeans make a rattling sound, turn off the heat, and then put the soybeans out of the cold and pour them into the blender to beat the soybean powder. The cooked rice balls are rolled in the soybean flour and then plated.
The taste of the tangyuan in this way is similar to the traditional snack "donkey rolling" with the characteristics of old Beijing, sweet and soft, very delicious, only one step more than the boiled tangyuan, but the taste is much worse, can be eaten as an early snack, can also be eaten as a small snack, adults and children like it.
