Time flies so fast, the blink of an eye is the Lantern Festival, this year's Spring Festival is destined to be a special year, will always remain in the memory. Every day, the news we pay attention to is the situation of fighting the epidemic in various places, and the angels in white are touched by the hearts, hoping that everything will pass a little earlier and return to the previous life. Today is just the weekend, the home to make tangyuan material there is a little, then we still try to maintain the traditional customs, Ningbo people eat tangyuan that is not only the Lantern Festival, but after the winter solstice, can always eat until the fifteenth day of the first month, the supermarket in the frozen tangyuan have been bought, everyone as far as possible to maintain the habit of the festival, for me to prepare some glutinous rice flour and lard sesame filling is also a habit for many years, buy is not as good as their own to do as you want, but also to kill time, The last ingredients at home are used to share a bowl of rice balls for everyone during the Lantern Festival, and have a Lantern Festival.
At that time, Xu Xian bought tangyuan to eat on the broken bridge, a copper coin bought three large tangyuan, three copper coins bought a small tangyuan, everyone bought a large tangyuan, only Xu Xian could only buy a small tangyuan to eat because he could not buy a large tangyuan, which triggered a story of Xu Xian and the White Lady. While making tangyuan, I talked to my children about the legends of the eight ancients, and then talked about the Jinshan Park in Zhenjiang one year, which is the place where the story of the water flooded Jinshan; and talked about the meat of Zhenjiang, and the child said that he really wanted to eat the meat. While making tangyuan and chatting, time has passed.
Because there are not many leftover ingredients, and every year to make tangyuan want to make some new tricks, so today I moved my brain, made a super big tangyuan, each person eats a bowl, each bowl is only one, and then embellished with a few red goji berries, it looks very festive, even in previous years, every time the tangyuan is too greasy and not delicious children, also took a bowl of a few bites to eat, even said delicious. I said that the tangyuan is still the tangyuan, but if you eat less, you will feel delicious. Everything is like this, losing makes people feel lost, and what they don't get is the best in their minds.
【Ningbo Lard Sesame Dumplings】
Ingredients: 250 g glutinous rice flour, 150 g water, 200 g sesame filling with lard
Excipients: a few goji berries
Method: Step 1, with 250 grams of flour plus about 150 grams of water kneaded into a powder ball, water to add a little, rather dry a little, the nature of glutinous rice flour and flour or there is a difference, too dry to add water or can make the powder soften. In the past, the glutinous rice flour of Ningbo people was ground in this way, and then put in a cloth bag to drain the water, and when you want to eat, add some water and knead it again.
Step 2: I add some more water and rub it again, and the humidity of the powder is just right.
Step 3, ready-made tangyuan filling, grab the material of about the same size, roll into a round ball, which can also let the children at home complete, hands-on, I also learned when I was a child, and I will never forget it when I grow up.
Step 4: Take the dough and knead it into a round cake, if the dumplings are wrapped small, I will turn them into the shape of a small bowl, because today's dumplings are big, so they are spread in my hand.
Step 5: Place the sesame lard filling in the middle and wrap the glutinous rice flour skin around it
Step 6: Roll into a circle.
Step 7, a meal can not be finished, you can also do a good job, cover the plastic wrap to freeze up, but it is best to eat the next day, do not store for a long time.
Step 8: Bring a small pot of water to a boil, I will first cook 2 to eat, 2 is 2 bowls.
Step 9, in the process of cooking, to stir a little, to prevent the tangyuan stick to the bottom, after the water can be changed to medium heat, let the inside cook thoroughly, because the tangyuan is relatively large, cook until the tangyuan floats to the water, you can.
Let's live well together, eat well, encourage ourselves, comfort our families, what are we afraid of!
