Three-color winter solstice glutinous rice balls

Overview

The winter solstice is here. Every year when the winter solstice comes, I will think of my mother's winter solstice pills, but now I can only reminisce about it. While I am reminiscing, I also make my own winter solstice pills for the children to eat, and keep them for the children to remember in the future. In the past, people would take a day off during the winter solstice to smell the sweet smell of sugar and enjoy the festive atmosphere. Now, children don’t have a day off during the winter solstice. Not to mention experiencing the joy of the festival, some children don’t even know about the winter solstice.

  3. Add glutinous rice flour and cornstarch into a basin, the ratio of flour is 10:1, then add a tablespoon of sugar and an appropriate amount of warm water, and knead until the dough is smooth. When kneading dough, you should pay attention to three lights: face light, basin light, and hand light. Just make sure the dough looks smooth if it doesn't stick to your hands.

  4. Take a piece of dough, roll it into a round shape, flatten it, make it thicker in the middle and slightly thinner on the two sides, add strawberry pieces, close the edge and shape it into a round shape. (Originally I wanted to just make small dumplings without filling, but the two girls said we wanted to eat big stuffed dumplings, so I wanted to make them some fruit-filled dumplings)

  9. In addition, boil the water until it is almost boiling, add the glutinous rice balls, and cook until the glutinous rice balls float, adding cold water two to three times during the process. If the cooked glutinous rice balls are soaked in cold water, they will get QQ.
