Eight-treasure glutinous rice with sand

Overview

This year, Zerui’s mother made several bowls of rice pudding, using homemade ingredients and filling the middle with red bean paste, which is sweet and soft. One more thing, glutinous rice has the effect of strengthening the spleen and warming the stomach, and red beans and red dates also have the effect of replenishing iron and replenishing qi and blood, so during the festival, you might as well make a few more bowls!

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash the glutinous rice and soak it for more than 4 hours in advance.

   

2. 2 , put into the rice cooker and steam until cooked.

   

3. 3 Add sugar and melted lard to the steamed glutinous rice while it's hot, mix well and set aside. (The amount of sugar and lard depends on personal preference. It is better to mix evenly with the glutinous rice.

   

4. 4 Prepare auxiliary ingredients such as preserved fruit and red bean filling. (I prepared various candied fruits, orange candied fruits, kiwis, candied dates, wolfberries, fruit peels, bean paste fillings, etc. You can prepare them according to your preference or the ingredients you have on hand. They do not need to be exactly the same.)

   

5. 5 Cut the fruit peel, candied dates, and other candied fruits into small pieces and set aside.

   

6. 6 Take a bowl and smear it with lard (the lard will make it easier to invert it after steaming without sticking to the bowl), and lay out the various preserved fruits in the way you like.

   

7. 7 Spread a layer of mixed glutinous rice and top with preserved fruits again.

   

8. 8 Dig a hole in the middle of the glutinous rice and fill the hole with bean paste filling.

   

9. 9 Finally, cover it with a layer of glutinous rice and compact it with a spoon.

   

10. 10 Everything is done (700 grams of glutinous rice makes four bowls of eight-treasure rice).

    

11. 11 Put the cooked rice pudding in the steamer and steam it again for 20 minutes.

    

12. 12 Take out the steamed eight-treasure rice and place it upside down on a plate. Pour sugar water or sugared osmanthus over it before eating. The glutinous rice itself is very sweet, so you don’t need to pour sugar water over it. The beautiful eight-treasure rice brings happiness to the door.

    

13. 13 Finished product.
