Guangxi Gray Water Meat Zongzi

Prepare the rice dumpling leaves, straw rope, glutinous rice, alkali powder, and alkali powder. I bought a small bag for one yuan. You can buy it at the grain and oil store where the rice dumpling leaves are sold. Soak the rice dumpling leaves and straw rope for 3 hours in advance and wash them. Then put them in a pot and cook for 10 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Cut the meat into strips, shred the shiitake mushrooms and add other ingredients to the meat filling, mix well and marinate for 4 hours to add flavor and set aside. Except for alkali powder

Take a small bowl of water and add alkali powder and mix well. Pour in the washed glutinous rice and mix well. Fill the glutinous rice with water and mix again. The glutinous rice will absorb water at first, so you need to add enough water. It can be soaked for 4 hours or a day.

Take two leaves and put two spoons of glutinous rice on them, with the size of a spoon underneath

Then put the meat filling

Put two spoons of glutinous rice on top of the meat filling

Wrap the right half of the leaves first

Then wrap the left half of the leaves

Then fold it down and hold it tightly

Turn the other end and do the same as steps 7, 8, and 9. Wrap it up right and then left. When turning, be sure to hold the other end tightly during this step, otherwise it will fall apart easily.

After wrapping, take a piece of straw rope and fold it in half. First tie one end tightly, then turn it over and tie the other end

Wrap it up and tie it in a knot

Get ready to cook

Put the rice dumplings into the pressure cooker water and be sure to soak them. Press the soup function button. If the time is up, I press it again. I press it three times in total. It cooks for two hours and simmers for an hour. In this way, the rice dumplings are soft, waxy and delicious

It’s finally out

Give it a try first, it’s so fragrant
