How to make Cantonese style bean paste and rice dumplings

Step 1

Soak the rice dumpling leaves and glutinous rice for a day;

Step 2

Fill the glutinous rice with water until the rice noodles are just covered, add 1.5 tsp of soybean water, and soak for another 2 to 3 hours;

Step 3

Boil water in a flat pot and drag the rice dumpling leaves into the water. Because of how the store stores and handles the leaves, it is safer to boil them in hot water;

Step 4

Put the leaves into the palm of your hand, pour half of the glutinous rice, then dig a hole with your fingers, add bean paste, and then spread a layer of glutinous rice (I forgot to take a picture, so I only explained it in words);

Step 5

Wrap the materials and tie them tightly. Don't wrap them too full, and don't tie them too tightly, because the rice will expand when heated. The original rice dumplings were made with water and grass. Nowadays, you can hardly find them. You can only use cotton rope;

Step 6

Pour water into the pot, add the rice dumplings, boil until the water boils, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 60 minutes. The author is not good at wrapping.It was relatively small and took about 60 minutes to cook. If it was larger, it would take longer to cook.

1. If you don’t add bean paste, the pure rice dumplings are also great. Drizzle them with soy sauce, cooked sesame oil, and a different flavor. If you like sweet food, you can top them with syrup or brown sugar powder, which is super delicious; 2. Remember not to wrap or tie it too tightly. The glutinous rice will expand when heated, and it will burst if it is too tight.
