Six color glutinous rice

Introduction:

"What do you eat on Tomb Sweeping Day? I don't know about other places, but what I eat in Pingguo County, Guangxi, is five color glutinous rice [white (the primary color of rice), black (maple leaf), red (red wool), purple (a plant similar to red wool, also called purple wool), yellow (a kind of wild small yellow flower on the mountain, which I will pick and dry until Qingming Festival)], which is a kind of glutinous rice in Guangxi The Zhuang family regard it as a symbol of good luck and abundant grain. All the colors are natural. The glutinous rice is dyed with the color juice from plants and then steamed in a steamer. Steamed five color glutinous rice with steamed peeled mung beans can be eaten in a frying pan with oil and salt, or hand knead the glutinous rice into a glutinous rice ball, and then wrapped in a steamed sausage. Every Qingming Festival or March 3, I would like to eat five color rice made by my mother. For me, it is a taste of my mother. In Guangzhou, we seldom see those color plants in our hometown. I was so excited to see red wool that I immediately bought some to make. Other colors can only be replaced by purple potatoes. But in addition to the purple potato effect is better, other effects are not obvious, here can not find a substitute for the color
