Staying together is the most basic thingRequire, Beauty is the higher goal~ I did it based on the basic requirements. After all, this is the most difficult step. I have been eating rice dumplings for decades, but the number of times I make them is very limited (my mother always makes them by herself. When I was a child, she thought I was in the way, so I usually stayed away from it. In recent years, she has tried her best to encourage me and treat me like a mother. People also need to learn how to make rice dumplings for their children to eat)Step 7
Boil it in cold water. After the water boils, turn to medium heat and cook it for about 2 hours. This will cook it thoroughly inside and out - this is what my mother taught me! The pressure cooker is afraid that the outside will be too rotten but the inside will still be undercooked.Step 8
