Homemade sweet wine

Overview

I bought this sweet rice wine in the summer and made it now when the weather is cold. I shouldn’t need a quilt, but now I must use it. I also used a hot water bottle for this baby. Because it was the first time I made it, I took care of it like my own child. Fortunately, the result was very successful. The rice wine is very sweet and has a good texture. After the glutinous rice is fermented, it feels a bit dregs but not hollow. Haha, I will make the rice wine myself from now on.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash the glutinous rice and soak it in cold water, and prepare the sweet wine koji.

   

2. 2 Soak the glutinous rice for more than 16 hours (put it in the refrigerator when it's hot), until it breaks into pieces when you take a grain of rice with your hands, and then steam it in a pot.

   

3. 3 Take the steamed glutinous rice out into an oil-free and water-free container and cool it to about 30 degrees.

   

4. 4 Sprinkle an appropriate amount of sweet koji on top, usually in a ratio of 500 grams of rice to 2 grams of koji.

   

5. 5 Pour in cold boiled water in batches and knead with your hands while pouring until the rice grains are dispersed. Mix the koji and rice evenly. (Disposable gloves can be worn)

   

6. 6 Take an oil-free and water-free container, compact the mixed rice, and leave a small hole in the middle to observe the water discharge.

   

7. 7 Cover and seal. Wrap it in cotton-padded clothes or quilts, put a hot water bottle inside the clothes or quilts, and try to keep the temperature around 30 degrees. Just replace the water in the hot water bottle.

   

8. 8 After one day, the rice grains taste a little sweet. After two days, most of the water is filled in the small holes. If the glutinous rice can move when you shake the container, the wine will be very, very sweet.
