How to cook Glutinous Rice Balls at home

Steps
-
Soak the glutinous rice overnight. I usually soak it the night before
-
Drain the soaked glutinous rice and place it in a steamer covered with a thin steaming cloth. Use chopsticks to mix the glutinous rice well, otherwise it will be half-cooked. 15 minutes after the fire started. As long as it is glutinous rice that has been soaked in water for more than 5 hours, 15 minutes is suitable.
-
While the glutinous rice is steaming, take a small piece of bacon and cut it into cubes. Cut the ginger into small pieces and prepare the eggs. Put the sliced bacon into a pot, add a little oil to the pan, stir-fry the oil, and put it into a bowl
-
Remove the glutinous rice from the pot and pour it into a large basin. First, add salt while it's hot. You have to decide how much salt you want. I used about two kilograms of glutinous rice, a small spoonful. Because the bacon has a salty taste, you don't need to add too much salt. Quickly add the eggs while it's hot. I usually use 5 eggs for 2 pounds of glutinous rice. As soon as the eggs are beaten in, the glutinous rice will turn golden. Finally, add minced ginger, Sichuan peppercorns, and bacon, and mix well.

I started making balls, because the surgery was all glutinous rice and oil and I didn’t take any pictures. When pinching, remember to prepare half a bowl of water in the small bowl. Before pinching each round, wet your palms with water so that they won't stick to your hands. Be sure to pinch it tightly, otherwise it won’t be easy to pinch if it falls apart! Let the water in the steamer rise for 15 minutes, great. Start the pot
