Purple yam glutinous rice balls

Overview

We here generally call glutinous rice balls noodles as wax noodles. Because of the weather, glutinous rice balls noodles are usually only made in the twelfth lunar month in winter, so they are called wax noodles. The wax noodles at home are made by my mother every year, which usually involves five steps: selecting glutinous rice, soaking the glutinous rice, grinding the rice pulp, pressing the rice pulp, and slicing the dried rice pulp and drying it. The rice pulp is usually exposed to the sun all day on the terrace and exposed to the sun at night. After a week of drying in cycles of day and night, high and low temperatures, the dried glutinous rice balls are stored in cloth bags and eaten as needed. The glutinous rice balls made in this way are more tough and chewy than the glutinous rice balls bought in supermarkets, and they are not so soft and greasy when eaten. Glutinous rice balls are made of glutinous rice. Glutinous rice contains protein, fat, sugar, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, niacin and starch. It is rich in nutrients and is a warming and strengthening food. Purple yam is wild in the mountains and does not have the dazzling purple color of artificial cultivation.
