Glutinous Rice Balls with Rice Balls
Overview
Yesterday's maize (corn) was finished today, and my mother-in-law took a big pot outside and pounded it into fine puree with a professional machine. We ate this all day today: maize cake, maize glutinous rice balls, and pickles. It felt like we were transported to the era of Chairman Mao 😂 Method: directly put the corn maize (corn paddle) without adding water into the boiling water pot and cook it over low heat. Not to mention it is very delicious and has the fragrance of corn. My mother-in-law said that in that era, not to mention eating rice porridge and drinking corn soup (corn soup), we were very happy. There was endless work to do every day. When we came home, we would drink a bowl of corn soup. The faces of the people in the bowl were clearly visible, let alone eating dry rice dumplings. The living conditions at that time were very poor. Ah, this is what we generations should not think about. Nowadays, living conditions are good, and you can basically eat anything you want. It is precisely because of the good living conditions that you need to eat more whole grains, which are good for the body. Corn contains vitamins B1, B2, etc., which can protect nerve conduction and gastrointestinal function, prevent beriberi, myocarditis, and maintain skin fitness. Nutrition experts say that the all-round nutrition contained in corn is suitable for people of all ages. Its rich glutamic acid can promote brain development and is the best educational food for children; its vitamin B family can regulate nerves and is a stress-reducing food suitable for white-collar workers; it is rich in linoleic acid , calcium, can help regulate lipids and lower blood pressure, and the high fiber content makes corn a good intestinal scraping food, which can prevent middle-aged weight gain; in addition, the glutathione rich in corn is the most effective anti-cancer ingredient, and its rich vitamin E can also help anti-aging and soften blood vessels.
