Bamboo tube rice dumplings, one of my girlfriend's favorite delicacies. In the past, there were often mobile stalls selling bamboo tube rice dumplings at the entrance of the school, as long as the school was over, a group of children were allowed to surround this small stall. My girlfriend is no exception, no matter if she is hungry or not, there is a good chance that she will buy one.
In order to let my girlfriend eat it in her mouth when she wants to eat it, I decided to buy a bamboo tube to make it myself. Watching the girl's happy and enjoyable look when she ate the bamboo dumplings she made herself, my old mother's heart was no more satisfied and happy than this!
Bamboo tube rice dumplings are better to do than I imagined, but if you want to not scatter, you still need to pay attention to some small details, Zerui's mother summed up a few points in the process of making bamboo tube rice dumplings, as long as you pay attention to these points, you can also make soft sticky sweet, not sticky bamboo tube rice dumplings, even if you have never made bamboo tube rice dumplings, you can also do a good job!
——Bamboo tube rice dumplings—— (The following ingredients can be made with a diameter of about 2.5 cm 10 bamboo tube rice dumplings)
【Ingredients】
Ingredients: 500 g of glutinous rice, 150 g of purple glutinous rice
Accessories: 8 dates, 8 red dates
Tools: 10 bamboo tubes
【Directions】
Step 1: Ingredient display: round glutinous rice, purple glutinous rice, dates and red dates. Here it should be emphasized that the viscosity of purple glutinous rice is not as good as the viscosity of round glutinous rice, and it is best to mix purple rice dumplings with round glutinous rice, and the proportion of purple glutinous rice is not too high.
Step 2: Wash the purple glutinous rice and the round glutinous rice and soak them in cool water for 12 hours.
Step 3: Soak until it looks like in the picture, it is best to crush it by hand. Purple glutinous rice is also soaked to this extent.
Step 4, deal with red dates and dates, pit the dates and cut the dates together into small cubes, like to eat dates to add more, do not like to add less. You can also add some soaked red beans and the like, just like it.
Step 5: Mix the soaked glutinous rice with the red dates and diced dates. (Here ZeRui Mama set aside a part of the glutinous rice and dates mixed with purple glutinous rice, purple glutinous rice viscosity is not as good as white glutinous rice, you need to mix a part of the white glutinous rice made of bamboo tube rice dumplings will be softer glutinous, will not spread out)
Step 6: This is my bamboo tube, which is boiled in light salt water, with bamboo tubes, gaskets, and corks. The bamboo tubes purchased cannot be used and need to be boiled in lightly salted water, which is clean and not easy to crack, and can be reused. (Wash and dry after use, and then put it away in a clean bag so that the bamboo tube does not become moldy and cracked.) It would be nice to soak it in hot water next time I use it).
Step 7: First place the gasket into the bottom of the bamboo tube.
Step 8: Put in the mixed glutinous rice, while putting the glutinous rice, use chopsticks and other tools to press it, and compact the glutinous rice in the bamboo tube, so that the boiled rice dumplings will not be loose.
Step 9: Install until eight points full. Rice should not be too full, when boiled rice will swell, easy to put the plug out, then you will not harvest the bamboo tube rice dumplings, but a pot of glutinous rice porridge.
Step 10: Tighten the cork. Press as tightly as possible to prevent the sticky rice from bursting out when cooking.
Step 11, all done, a total of 5 white glutinous rice and 5 black glutinous rice were made.
Step 12: Put the bamboo tube rice dumplings into the cooking pot and add water to the bamboo tube rice dumplings. Be sure to have no zongzi, otherwise the zongzi that leaks outside the water will be difficult to cook.
Step 13: Bring to a boil over high heat and reduce the heat to simmer, at least! least! least! Also cook for two and a half hours. (You can also use a pressure cooker to press directly for 40 minutes, but Zerui's mother considers the pressure of the pressure cooker and is worried that the glutinous rice will burst out of the cork, for the sake of safety, or use a low heat slow cooking method)
Step 14: Cook for 3 hours, take out one and see how it goes.
Step 15: Open one first to see the results. The removed bamboo tube rice dumplings are soaked in cool water for a few minutes, and the bamboo stick is pushed out from the bottom of the bamboo tube, not loose, soft and sticky! After the introduction of the upper layer of white sugar is more delicious ~ ~ ~
The rice dumplings pushed out are rolled with a layer of white sugar, sweet and soft, and I can't help but want to take a bite first! Sit in rows, divide the rice dumplings!
