Yuqian Wotou

There is an elm tree on the hillside. It happened to be the weekend, so I picked some sweet elm money and I can make delicious food again.

Full of rewards.

It's small and so cute. Yuqian is homophonic to "surplus money".

Remove the handle.

Sprinkle some salt in the water, soak the elm money for a few minutes and rinse it thoroughly.

Put corn flour, all-purpose flour, rice flour and salt into a basin.

Mix well.

Add the washed Yuqian and stir it.

Break in an egg.

Stir to form a slightly dry dough. If it is too dry, add a small amount of water.

Apply some oil on your hands, take an appropriate amount of dough, and shape it into a dough with a slightly pointed top.

Use your finger to press a hole at the bottom.

Place in a steamer, add cold water to the pot, cook for about 30 minutes, turn off the heat, simmer for two minutes, then open the lid and take out.

The taste is sweet and delicate, and it will be even more delicious if paired with dipping sauce.
