Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Cut the taro into slices and place it on the basket to steam until cooked. It is easier to steam after slicing. It will take about 10 minutes after the water boils. There is no need to peel the skin when slicing, just wash it. The skin is easy to remove after steaming, and you don’t have to worry about itchy hands.

   

2. 2 grams of taro after peeling. This taro contains less water. If it is boiled taro or steamed hot taro, the water content will be higher.

   

3. 3 Add 80 grams of tapioca starch and 20 grams of rice flour to the taro, knead with your hands, and knead the flour and taro evenly. Adding a little rice flour will make the dumplings taste better, soft and elastic and more delicious.

   

4. 4 Depending on the specific conditions of the dough, add some milk and knead the taro dough evenly until it is moderately soft and hard.

   

5. 5 Roll the kneaded dough into strips as thick as your little finger, and then divide it into small rounds. When kneading, the force should be even. You can use a little hand flour to make the operation easier.

   

6. 6 If the cut balls are not removed from the pot in time, they need to be covered with plastic wrap to prevent them from drying out.

   

7. 7 Add water to a small pot and bring it to a boil. You can boil the water and roll the balls at the same time.

   

8. 8 After the water boils, add the taro balls and cook until all the taro balls float and have no hard core.

   

9. 9 Take it out and rinse it in cold water. Set aside. You can make more taro balls at a time, divide them into small portions after cooling them and freeze them in the refrigerator. When you eat them, you can just take them out and cook them directly in the pot.

   

10. 10 Pour out the soup used to cook the dumplings, leaving a bowl in the pot. Add the red beans that have been cooked before, add sugar and bring to a boil. Honey red beans can also be used here. The beans cooked by yourself are relatively rotten and have the feeling of bean paste. The amount of sugar can also be adjusted according to the situation.

    

11. 11 Put the milk and taro balls into the pot, boil them together with the red bean paste, put them into a bowl, and serve. You can add some roses and dried osmanthus to make it look good and delicious.
