February 2 moxa glutinous rice

Overview

How to cook February 2 moxa glutinous rice at home

First boil the mugwort with water, then remove it and rinse it slightly. Add about 350ml of water to the mugwort, add brown sugar and simmer until the brown sugar melts. Test the sweetness (just make it sweeter than ordinary sweet soup, because the sweetness will be moderate after adding glutinous rice flour)
The filling inside is peanuts and white sugar. The peanuts are fried in a pot, stripped, crushed, and an appropriate amount of white sugar is added, and set aside.
Add the newly boiled mugwort brown sugar water to the glutinous rice flour and knead into a smooth dough
Take an appropriate amount of dough and roll it into a round shape in the palm of your hand
Dip it in flour (to prevent sticking) and flatten it into a bowl shape
Add the peanut sugar filling you just made, fold it in half and pinch the edges.
The prepared moxa glutinous rice cakes are placed neatly on the plate one by one, being careful not to stick together.
The last step is to steam it in a pot. Spread cake paper or bamboo leaves, rice dumplings or leaves on the bottom. It will take about five minutes to puff up and open.
Usually there are dozens of them made at one time, and the finished products should be separated one by one, otherwise they will stick together.
