Too thick to melt away——Osmanthus, glutinous rice and jujube

Overview

Valentine's Day is coming soon, and this year's Valentine's Day also happens to be the Lantern Festival. According to traditional Chinese customs, glutinous rice balls are eaten during the Lantern Festival. Glutinous rice flour is the main ingredient of glutinous rice balls. After making the glutinous rice balls, wrap a few red dates left over, steam them in a pot, and then wrap them in syrup. A simple and delicious dessert is ready. The red dates and rock sugar imply redness and sweetness, and the strong fragrance of osmanthus is romantic. Red dates are wrapped in glutinous rice, and crystal sugar is sweetly wrapped in rock sugar that can only be melted by the temperature of love. Then lightly pour a spoonful of osmanthus sugar and sprinkle a handful of sesame seeds, so that the romance no longer remains in the visual sense, but is sublimated in an instant. A piece of sweet-scented osmanthus, glutinous rice, and red dates are wrapped in sweetness, lingering and lingering... You say, I say, the moment is strong love, how can the love melt away when it is strong? It has a good taste and a good meaning. With that said, it’s perfect to cook a dessert like this for your loved one this Valentine’s Day. Then act quickly! Who says romance can only happen before flowers and under the moon? Make the kitchen romantic and your life will be full of romance!
