Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Pour the milk into the pot and bring to a boil

   

2. 2 Use a net to filter out the rice in the rice wine, leaving only the wine. Pour the filtered rice wine into the milk

   

3. 3 The milk will clump quickly, so turn off the heat.

   

4. 4 It is best to lay a thinner cloth on the drying net. Two layers of gauze are the best. I didn't have any, so I used a cloth used for making tofu and filtered out the milk. The filtered milk serum can be drank directly and tastes very good, so it should be collected in a clean container

   

5. 5 Because it was relatively hot, after I filtered the milk whey, I used the method of pressing tofu, pressing it with a heavy object for an hour, so that the remaining milk whey inside could be filtered as cleanly as possible.

   

6. 6 Finally, put the obtained cheese into a plastic bag and knead it well to make the cheese tough and delicate

   

7. 7 Then press the cheese into a rectangular piece, about 5 mm thick, and spread the homemade red bean filling on top

   

8. 8 Roll up from one end and cut into sections
