Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash the glutinous rice and soak it in water for more than 8 hours

   

2. 2 Put the soaked glutinous rice into a steamer and steam until cooked, about 20 to 30 minutes.

   

3. 3 Rinse the steamed glutinous rice with cold water to separate the rice grains and cool it to about 30 degrees.

   

4. 4 Crush the sweet koji and sprinkle it into the cooled rice and mix evenly. Note: The temperature of the rice should not be too high. If it is too high, the yeast will be killed by the heat. If it is too cold, the wine will come out quickly. The best temperature is between 30 degrees Celsius, as long as your hands feel warm but not hot.

   

5. 5 Put the mixed rice into the container, leaving a hole in the middle for easy observation of the wine. Seal the container and place it in a dark place, wrap it in a quilt and keep it warm at about 30 degrees. Just wait 48 hours.

   

6. 6 After 48 hours, the sweet glutinous rice wine is ready to eat.

   

7. 7 If someone at home likes to drink, they can put some of the wine in the refrigerator to keep it refrigerated and take it out when drinking.

   

8. 8 Pack the remaining lees in a separate container and store them in the refrigerator. You can eat the lees if you want.
