Home made zongzi

Introduction:

"The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, because there are some things, so I wrapped zongzi to eat in advance, but because I don't have spare time to take photos, I can only make up the photos after wrapping. I'm sorry."

Production steps:

Step 1: zongzi leaves, here are fresh leaves, vacuum packaged, there are also sold on the market dry, use only need to soak to soft can be used

Step 2: two pieces of rice dumpling leaves overlap, with a piece of words is too thin, easy to damage in the rope, affect the quality of rice dumplings

Step 3: form a funnel shape from the middle of the two blades. Pay attention to the small hole below. It is used for drainage, so it must be reserved

Step 4: turn it over and you can see a clear hole. If the hole is too big, the rice will leak out. If it is too small, the water will not drain out

Step 5: when making the dumpling, add the soaked rice and the ingredients you want to put in, such as dates, beans, meat, etc., and then cover the bottom with the cover of the extra part of the zongzi leaf and tie it tightly with a rope. Be sure to tie it tightly, otherwise when cooking

Step 6: Cooking zongzi is a long time job. If you use a pressure cooker, it only takes about 30 minutes. If it is an ordinary cooker, it takes 2 to 3 hours to cook. After cooking, you need to soak in the soup for about 30 minutes to eat. It tastes good. Note that there is a rice leak on the upper left side, that is, it is not tied tightly. It will expand and show up after being heated

Step 7: cook the dumplings and soak them

Materials required:

Zongziye: about 50 pieces

Jiangmi: 600g

Red fragrant rice: right amount

Jujube: right amount

Homemade marinated meat: right amount

Red beans: moderate

Bean stuffing: right amount

Note: the ratio of red fragrant rice I used here is actually 1:1, and the zongzi is red and white flower shaped, which is very beautiful, but the taste of red fragrant rice is not very soft and waxy, some hard taste, and the combination of the two is also unique, so you can not put it if you don't like it. Red fragrant rice, commonly known as "Rouzhi rice", is famous for its red color, fragrance and mellow taste. It has the effect of "clearing heat and moistening lung, calming heart and refreshing spirit, nourishing kidney and liver".
