【Purple Sweet Potato Grapes】--- Use natural pigments to make a graphic snack
Overview
Yesterday afternoon, I made cute and charming purple sweet potato grapes with my two kids. This is a very realistic and tangible sweet snack. The outer skin is orange noodles with purple sweet potato, and the filling is red bean paste, which is glutinous and sweet, and delicious. For the red flowers and green leaves, I specially picked a grape branch on the balcony. The tender sprouts are really unbearable and make people feel distressed, but a little decoration makes the finished product more vivid. If you make a plate of snacks like this for a family banquet, it will definitely attract everyone’s attention!

Ingredients
Steps
-
Mix the glutinous rice flour and glutinous rice flour evenly.
-
Pour in boiling water and stir quickly to form a fluffy consistency. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes.
-
Before preparing the flour, steam the purple sweet potato in a pot, take it out while hot and press it into a fine purple sweet potato puree.
-
Knead the rested dough into a round shape, then add lard and continue kneading evenly.
-
Add purple sweet potato puree.
-
Knead into a uniform purple potato dough, cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
-
Prepare appropriate amount of bean paste filling.
-
Take a small portion of the dough, slightly round it, flatten it, and add a bean paste filling. (During the wrapping process, the dough should be covered with plastic wrap to prevent the skin from drying out. You can also directly place the dough on the chopping board and knead into long strips, cut into small portions, and then wrap)
-
Wrap it up like glutinous rice balls, roll it into a ball, and then shape it into a grape shape.
-
Do it one by one, put it on a plate with a thin layer of oil, and pile it up like a bunch of grapes.
-
Put into pot and steam until cooked.
-
Take out the steamed "grapes" and garnish with washed fresh grape leaves.
