Lixiawu rice

Introduction:

"Today is the beginning of summer. Eating black rice in the beginning of summer has always been a traditional custom of Hangzhou people. The old people say that mosquitoes will not bite after eating black rice leaves. There is another legend about black rice: during the Warring States period, Sun Bin was forced to be imprisoned in a pigsty. The old jailer cooked black glutinous rice with black leaves, then made it into pig dung like rice balls and gave it to Sun Bin to eat. Sun Bin not only survived by this method, but also was in good health and finally escaped from prison. The first time Sun Bin ate black rice was at the beginning of summer. The traditional black rice is to wash the leaves, remove the old branches, and then take a handful of tender leaves in the hands, with both hands constantly rub, until the leaves rub rotten exude black juice. The longer you rub it, the thicker the juice, and the more delicious the cooked rice. When the leaves are almost rubbed, filter out the residue with gauze, soak the glutinous rice in the filtered juice for a while, and finally cook it as usual. Yesterday, I bought black leaves in the vegetable market and began to make black rice. It's hard to rub the leaves with my hands, and my hands will hurt. Modern kitchen appliances solve many problems. Breaking them with a cooking machine can still make delicious black rice! As for the taste, it's the most delicious with sugar! "
