The secret to slimming down legs and buttocks in summer is the classic vegetarian tofu with beef sauce

In the process of losing weight, many people will encounter difficulties comparable to climbing Mount Everest. Local weight loss on the buttocks and thighs is very difficult. Have plump, strong and round buttocks; it will add a slender effect to the legs. It will naturally highlight your slender waist and slim body curves. The buttocks are the invisible enemy of the body. Have you ever felt like this? I originally had long legs, but due to the sagging of my hips and the strength of my thighs, I immediately shifted my gaze and my long legs instantly turned into short legs. You really have the heart to hit the wall~ The main causes of hip sagging are sitting in daily life and not exercising and consuming too much animal fat. Unreasonable living and eating habits can easily cause fat to accumulate in the lower body, further causing sagging of the buttocks. Now that we have found the cause of hip sagging, let us start with three meals a day~ There is a folk saying that eating meat is worse than eating tofu; it saves money and is nourishing. Tofu is not only a table dish for ordinary people, but also a banquet dish for Wang Xietang. Tofu is a delicious and healthy alkaline food. It contains more calcium after being halogenated. It can supplement both protein and calcium. Tofu is the best source of plant protein and enjoys the reputation of plant meat. The protein content of soybeans is nearly twice that of beef, and tofu kills two birds with one stone. Great for body repair and replenishment, the body absorbs it. The ingredients I prepared today are cheap, good-quality and easy to use. Black fungus has high nutritional value and is rich in trace elements; it enjoys the reputation of being a scavenger of the human body. The iron content in black fungus is extremely rich. Regular consumption of black fungus can nourish blood and improve the appearance of the skin. Beauty and slimming are a no-brainer. Chili peppers can improve heart function, strengthen the stomach and aid digestion, promote blood circulation, beautify and lose weight, and prevent colds. Carrots are familiar; they are a common ingredient. Not only can it suppress the body's desire to eat sweets and greasy foods, it can also prevent colds and strengthen eyesight. Eat carrots wisely; losing weight can be achieved easily~ This dish is made with beef sauce, bean paste and Laoganma, and is coated with braised tofu with a strong sauce aroma. The tofu is bright in color, golden red in color, soft and fragrant in taste, slightly spicy and salty, with a slightly sweet aftertaste. Close your eyes and evaluate the taste carefully. The mouthful of beef aroma is unique and more delicious than beef~ It is both satisfying and healthy, and it can also be used for slimming and beauty. It is a good choice to use both methods!

Zongzi Love Dragon Boat Festival--Simple [Clear Water Zongzi]

The Dragon Boat Festival will be here in a few days. When it comes to the Dragon Boat Festival, many people who are away from home will miss the rice dumplings in their hometown. I am no exception, so every year when I can’t go home during the Dragon Boat Festival, I make some rice dumplings to relieve my homesickness. Zongzi in the north are mostly made of red dates or candied dates. Unlike in the south, there are many kinds of zongzi, including clear water rice dumplings, fresh meat rice dumplings, egg yolk meat rice dumplings, bean paste, alkaline water rice dumplings, pork ribs rice dumplings, and sausage rice dumplings. In the past two years, rice dumplings made with pork ribs and sausages were made every year. This year, my son said that he most wanted to eat clear water rice dumplings dipped in sugar. In fact, I also like to eat clear water rice dumplings. I don’t put anything in them, just wrap glutinous rice, and what I eat is the fragrance of the rice dumpling leaves. I made these rice dumplings more than ten days ago. I cooked some and gave them away. The rest were frozen in the refrigerator and can be steamed when I want to eat them. There was a discount on glutinous rice in the supermarket yesterday, so I bought another 4 kilograms. When the weather gets cooler, I will pack some in the freezer so that I can still have rice dumplings to eat after the Dragon Boat Festival.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, we are accustomed to the salty rice dumplings from the south and the sweet rice dumplings from the north. There is nothing new in the fight.

Golden Oyster Zongzi Emperor

This rice dumpling uses naturally sun-dried golden oysters. During the drying process, the golden oysters fully absorb the essence of the sun. The oyster meat tightly locks the oil and becomes a strong and elastic dried oyster meat. The delicious taste is concentrated in the dried oysters. Choose large and high-quality golden oysters, use them to make rice dumplings, add local pork, and selected high-quality glutinous rice. This is the most luxurious rice dumpling in my family this year, so I call it the Emperor of Rice Dumplings. The golden oysters are cooked to perfection During the process, shreds of oyster sauce penetrate into the glutinous rice, and its umami and meaty aroma blend with the sticky rice, enhancing the taste of all ingredients and releasing the complex aroma, making this rice dumpling extremely delicious. When you open the rice dumplings and take a bite, the glutinous and slippery flavor will spread in your mouth.

The taste of homesickness that remains fresh in my memory--Brown Molasses Bean Zongzi

The annual Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, and we didn’t lag behind and made several rice dumplings to eat. It still takes 2 years to learn how to wrap it up before you can show it to people. It seems easy to make rice dumplings, but I'm not sure whether they will miss the corners or burst into porridge. My first time one popped open, it was really a pot of porridge. There are also many omissions, so you should learn from experience. Although it didn’t explode the second time, it didn’t look good either, so last year there were still no rice dumplings in the recipe. This year, I continued to work hard and succeeded in relay after relay, and finally achieved results. Let’s take the brown molasses bean rice dumplings to show off first. This flavor of rice dumplings was only thought of wrapping this year. This taste is the most impressive taste in my memory. I have been working outside since I was very young, when I was only 16 years old. It was also my second year of working part-time, and it happened that the Dragon Boat Festival was approaching and I had no relatives around me. I miss my family so much, and my boss won’t let us go home. Fortunately, the proprietress thoughtfully made three large pots of rice dumplings and distributed them to everyone in the factory to relieve their homesickness. I felt at home when I took the first bite. At that time, I only knew it was delicious but did not know the taste of brown sugar. I only saw the heart of honey beans. I have had a home in the past few years and I miss the taste. Adding white sugar and red beans doesn't taste the same. Suddenly I thought that cooking it with honey beans and brown sugar would be the taste I was thinking about. I still remember the homesick taste of brown molasses bean rice dumplings. Among the three rice dumplings I made, the most popular one is the one that disappears the fastest.

There is also glutinous rice at home. The next morning I soaked the glutinous rice, cut the meat, stir-fried the sauce, marinated it, and wrapped it up and cooked it when I came back in the evening. By the time the rice dumplings were cooked, it was already half past nine in the evening. I endured the torture of gluttony and looked back and forth at the rice dumplings several times, but I refused to reach out and eat one. Wow, I admire my own perseverance so much.

Both her daughter and niece liked to eat them. I looked at the food at home, including glutinous rice, millet, red beans, mung beans, peanuts, and gorgon seeds. These are pretty good. Just use these. Because there are beans, they need to be soaked in advance this time, no less than twelve hours. Mima soaked them the night before and wrapped them the next morning. This time, I changed the wrapping method again. Instead of using silk thread, I used needles and reed leaves to wrap it, which is a bit like a square sachet bag. Mima added a small amount of sugar to the filling, which tasted delicious.

The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, I wish everyone a happy Dragon Boat Festival! Speaking of rice dumplings, many people think that glutinous rice is difficult to digest. If you eat too much at one time, your stomach will be bloated and uncomfortable, so you can add some grains or other grains to it. In the north, more rice is added, which is rhubarb rice, that is, broomcorn millet, which is unhulled millet and is glutinous than millet. It’s much bigger. What I always like to eat in the south is blood glutinous rice, also called purple-red glutinous rice. The outer skin is purple-red, which is a little glutinous than black rice, but it still has a hard outer shell. It is this full outer shell that is rich in dietary fiber and helps digestion~ Moreover, it is said that blood glutinous rice can also beautify the skin. Blood glutinous rice milk tea and blood glutinous rice ice cream were once popular in the streets and alleys of Shanghai! I added soaked lotus seeds into it, and it was really a complete health-preserving style~

A creative idea from Master Ci Shi. After all, rice dumplings are not a traditional food for northerners, and many people don’t know how to make them or can’t make them well. I am the only sister in our family who knows how to make rice dumplings, and my skills in making rice dumplings are also average. It is common for people not to know how to make zongzi. So during the Zongzi Festival, I just bought and ate them. I tasted them once and never wanted to eat them again. They had a distinct taste of saccharin and essence, and the price was quite high. With this method, people who think they can’t make rice dumplings don’t have to buy them to eat, and they don’t have to wait eagerly for relatives and friends who can make rice dumplings to give them to them. The fun of doing things yourself, the feeling of pride when your family praises your creativity, these are the happiness in life. Taste it after steaming. The texture is not as solid as zongzi, but the fragrant taste is not inferior to traditional zongzi. The making process is much simpler than traditional rice dumplings and takes less time.

I am also most concerned about when my mother pickles salted duck eggs every year. When I was a child, I picked duck eggs - packed duck eggs - hung duck eggs during the Dragon Boat Festival; what a happy and joyful day. Traditional customs are memories that every peer who has experienced them will never forget. I still remember eating salted duck eggs when I was a child. At that time, salted duck eggs were both for eating and playing with. When my mother was busy, I followed her like a little follower. Waiting for my mother to use the remaining threads from knitting sweaters to weave a small mesh bag. There is a salted duck egg hanging on the chest. The salted duck egg is placed in a beautiful little mesh bag, which is very conspicuous. This custom of hanging eggs continues from the beginning of summer to the Mid-Autumn Festival. I took the mesh bag prepared by my mother and went to school to compete with my classmates to see whose salted duck eggs were the hardest. Every time a person won, they would be extremely happy and show off their ability to make salted duck eggs everywhere. Usually the hardest salted duck eggs would be reluctant to eat. What a childlike and fun way to play, the duck egg has played its best role in my hands!

This Taiwanese mushroom-roasted pork rice dumpling is modeled after the 1980 roasted pork rice dumpling I had in Xiamen last year. Ordinary meat dumplings just marinate the meat in advance. As for Taiwanese meat dumplings, in addition to marinating, crispy red onions, dried shrimps, etc. are also added to enhance the flavor, and there is an additional step of stir-frying. Personally, I feel that the fried meat tastes more fragrant and is easier to savor! Although the ingredients are not that rich, the taste is quite good. This salty rice dumpling is welcomed by all the men in the family. The materials at home are limited, so I didn’t add dried shrimps to the salted rice dumplings this time. In addition, since I didn’t have chestnuts, I added some chickpeas on a whim, and the result was a big surprise! ! After cooking, the chickpeas will feel like they are exploding when you eat them, and the inside will be fragrant and glutinous, so delicious! Highly recommend everyone to try it!

Snowskin mooncake

Every time before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I look forward to going home soon, enjoying the full moon with my family and experiencing the happiness of reunion. Of course, this is my biggest wish. What also excites me is the traditional delicacy that must be eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival - mooncakes. In the north, the typical five-nut mooncake is my favorite. White sesame seeds, melon seeds, raisins, and sugar are made into fillings. The dough and pastry are made into a pie crust. The fillings are wrapped in a mold and molded into a mold to form a mooncake base, which is then baked in an oven. The freshly baked mooncakes are also delicious. However, traditional mooncakes are rich in oil and sugar and are high-calorie foods. People have begun to pay more and more attention to the nutrition of mooncakes and the innovation of production techniques. Out of my love for food, I couldn't resist the rising trend of mooncakes and started researching on mooncakes. From the mooncake fillings to the crust, every attempt that lasts for several hours is a test of one's perseverance. Making, taking photos, writing Weibo, and writing recipes from before the festival to after the festival. The snowskin mooncakes made by Chef Dong may not be the most delicious, but they are definitely made with care. I sincerely hope that my method will allow most people to enjoy delicious snowskin mooncakes. Snowskin mooncakes are relatively simple to make, do not require baking, and the making tools are relatively easy to prepare. As long as you prepare the raw materials, you can make beautiful and interesting mooncakes.

Chickpea and bacon rice dumplings

Everyone must have eaten a lot of salty and sweet rice dumplings. As expected, every time this time comes, the debate over salty and sweet rice dumplings will be fried again... I don’t know if you have noticed that some foreign brands are trying hard to seize the Chinese market share, such as Haagen-Dazs’ mooncakes and Starbucks’ rice dumplings. However, local brands seem to be planning to play more tricks, such as Sanquan’s ice cream rice dumplings. It seems that rice dumplings, whether salty or sweet, are a big cake with market opportunities~ I have been planning to make rice dumplings with this flavor, but I don’t know if they taste good or not. After I made them, I brought them to the office and they were all divided immediately. It seems that everyone likes them~ In fact, I think the highlight is the chickpeas. Half of the bacon is paired with mashed potatoes or sweet corn, so when I posted the photo, no one guessed that it was actually chickpeas. Chickpeas are a relatively Western-style ingredient. I first tasted them in Xinjiang pilaf, and I was hooked immediately. It contains more starch than soybeans, so it tastes very soft and waxy, a bit like yellow peas, but not as crispy as yellow peas. Not only that, it is said to contain high nutritional value and is a natural and healthy ingredient!

Even a novice can make rice dumplings: Five-spice fresh meat rice dumplings

Zongzi, also known as horn millet and tube rice dumpling, is a traditional festival food of the Han people during the Dragon Boat Festival. It is steamed by wrapping glutinous rice in rice dumpling leaves. The legend was spread in memory of Qu Yuan. It is the traditional food with the deepest cultural accumulation in Chinese history and is deeply loved by people. Speaking of which, a joke comes to mind. After Newton died, he left us the law of universal gravitation, as well as many homework and exams. After Qu Yuan died, he left us three days of vacation, dragon boat racing activities, and the most important thing is the rice dumplings that are loved by foodies. . . So, it’s better for Chinese people to treat Chinese people better~! I am a foodie, especially rice dumplings. Although the company distributes a lot of rice dumplings and salted eggs to us every Dragon Boat Festival, I still couldn't walk when I saw the rice dumpling leaves and glutinous rice. Therefore, I, who don't know how to make rice dumplings at all, made rice dumplings for the first time. The process was a bit miserable, but fortunately the ending was peaceful and happy, so I’ll shamelessly share it with you, don’t comment if you don’t like it~!

We northerners like sweet rice dumplings, which are glutinous rice with candied dates or red dates, so we have been exposed to sweet rice dumplings since we were young. It wasn’t until we came to Wuhan that we learned that rice dumplings can have many flavors, such as glutinous rice and red date rice dumplings, eight treasure rice dumplings, clear water rice dumplings, barbecued pork rice dumplings, pork ribs rice dumplings, bacon rice dumplings, fruit rice dumplings, there are many kinds. When my mother was in Wuhan two years ago, we made our own rice dumplings, including red date rice dumplings and candied date rice dumplings. The purple glutinous eight-treasure rice dumplings were my mother’s favorite, even though she has not been in Wuhan these two years. I still made her a favorite of this kind of rice dumplings. My mother is getting older. She has become obviously older since my father passed away. I am so far away from home and I can’t go back to see her often. Every time I call, I have to ask her to eat more. Eat well, don't be reluctant to spend money, mom is at home. If you leave me, I won't even have a chance to call mom when I go home.

The Dragon Boat Festival is coming again, and those who like to eat rice dumplings have long been unable to resist the temptation of the scent of reed leaves and are eager to try it. When we think of Zongzi, we think of glutinous rice. Today Guozi will show you how to use another ingredient to make rice dumplings, which is sago. I read several ways to wrap crystal rice dumplings on the Internet, and tried it three times myself. Various problems arose in the first two times according to the recipe. For example, the sago was still not cooked even after twice the time. Another example was that I used my own method of wrapping glutinous rice dumplings without interspersing threads, which caused all the sago to overflow after the rice dumplings were cooked. After two failures, I summarized and improved it and made it a third time. Finally, it was completed. However, my photography skills are limited and I cannot capture the crystal clear feel of the crystal rice dumplings, but the rice dumplings are indeed very beautiful. When referring to this recipe, please be sure to read the entire process before making it.

Dragon Boat Festival Platter

The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, so Feifei made a dragon boat racing platter to celebrate the occasion. I wonder what customs you have there? Feifei wishes everyone a happy Dragon Boat Festival in advance😁😘😘😙🌹 The Dragon Boat Festival is held on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month every year, also known as the Duanyang Festival, May Festival, and Five-Day Festival... Before the Spring and Autumn Period, the Dragon Boat Festival was a festival to cure diseases and prevent epidemics. Later, because the patriotic poet Qu Yuan died for his country on this day, it evolved into a festival for the Chinese Han people to pay homage to Qu Yuan and to remember the noble feelings of the Chinese nation. It has been followed to this day. Qu Yuan's fame has been immortalized, and the patriotic spirit has spread to all parts of China. However, there are exceptions. The Dragon Boat Festival in the Soochow area has never commemorated Qu Yuan, but commemorated Wu Zixu who was thrown into the river on May 5th. In addition, the customs of dragon boat racing and tribal totem sacrifices on this day in the Wuyue area predate the Spring and Autumn Period. During the Dragon Boat Festival, there are customs of eating rice dumplings, racing dragon boats, hanging calamus, mugwort, mugwort leaves, smoking atractylodes and angelica, and drinking realgar wine. The Dragon Boat Festival is one of the national statutory holidays and is included in the World Intangible Cultural Heritage List. Dragon Boat Racing Dragon boat racing is the main custom of the Dragon Boat Festival. According to legend, it originated from the ancient Chu people who were reluctant to leave their virtuous minister Qu Yuan and threw himself into the river. Many people rowed boats to chase and save him. They scrambled to catch up and disappeared when they reached Dongting Lake. After that, dragon boat racing was held every May 5th to commemorate the event. He rowed dragon boats to disperse the fish in the river to prevent them from eating Qu Yuan's body. The custom of racing was popular in Wu, Yue and Chu.

The Dragon Boat Festival is an ancient traditional festival in my country. On this day, rice dumplings and salted duck eggs have become indispensable delicacies on people's tables. Seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, everyone is busy making rice dumplings, but I don’t know how to make them, because my mother makes them for us every year, which also makes me very dependent, so I have never made them. I really like eating the rice dumplings made by my mother, especially the meat rice dumplings. They are very fragrant and are as good as Jiaxing meat rice dumplings. Although I can't make rice dumplings, I can still make salted duck eggs, which my mother likes. Although the red oil in the egg yolk doesn't come out too much, it is sandy, and the color of the egg yolk is also very red, which looks quite attractive. After eating it, my mother said it tasted very fragrant and delicious. She will never buy salted duck eggs again. Making her own is healthy and it tastes very safe!

Creative green tea + candied dates multi-flavor brown seeds

June 10th this year is the Dragon Boat Festival. Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, there is a custom of eating rice dumplings. The most basic ingredients of northern zongzi are glutinous rice + red dates. With the exchange and penetration of food culture between the north and the south, the zongzi in the north is becoming increasingly diversified. Of course I keep pace with the times. Every year before and after the Dragon Boat Festival, I like to wrap zongzi with different ingredients according to my own ideas. This year is the season of eating brown rice again, and we have created green tea + candied date brown, fruity orange flavor + preserved fruit brown, fruity grape flavor + preserved fruit brown, original glutinous rice + candied date brown, and original glutinous rice + rose bean paste brown. Drain the soaked glutinous rice and mix it with matcha powder, Guozhen orange-flavored powder, Guozhen grape-flavored powder, etc. to obtain different flavors. After tasting it, I personally feel that the best green tea + candied dates are brown seeds. Really recommend it to everyone. Reason for recommendation: Green tea is well colored when mixed with glutinous rice. After cooking, the rich green tea fragrance goes very well with the sweet and glutinous candied dates. The other flavors are also very delicious, but the coloring is inferior to green tea brown seeds.

Fresh meat rice dumplings

Zongzi wrapped with fresh meat is a more traditional way to eat zongzi! When making fresh meat rice dumplings, I usually choose to use pork belly to wrap the rice dumplings. The pork belly is fat but not greasy. The pork belly has been marinated a day in advance and is already flavorful. The salty aroma of the diced meat, the pork belly fat and the glutinous rice combine to make the fresh meat rice dumplings have a stronger meaty aroma and a moderate salty aroma.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, Hangzhou eats five yellows, which are five things with yellow in their names - yellow croaker, eel, egg yolk, yellow wine and cucumber (the style of cucumber somehow feels wrong). It seems that there is no special requirement to eat rice dumplings, but after all, rice dumplings are eaten on festivals across the country, so it goes without saying that rice dumplings are eaten. I guess it’s to eat the egg yolk at the same time. The rice dumplings in the south are basically soy sauce rice dumplings, and then add pork belly and egg yolk. I’ve posted several rice dumpling recipes, how could I forget the gluttonous variety of egg yolk rice dumplings! This year the Dragon Boat Festival is in school (it seems like it is in school every year...), and the weather is very hot. It is not convenient to buy some fresh meat, especially pork belly with fat, so I choose bacon with more fat instead. I must say salted egg yolk, which I pickled myself, because there are no high-gluten flours in the nearby supermarkets, so when making bread, I always put an additional egg white in order to meet the protein content standard, so - the egg yolk is left gorgeously. I don’t like making margaritas all the time, like if I could just pick up some salt and pickle the salted egg yolks, I tried it and it worked. In this photo, it didn’t take long to pickle, and it didn’t have a lot of oil, but it was already very tasty. I will improve the recipe next time, and the successful test will be published, for the benefit of everyone who is also confused ~ I think I am quite good at using leftovers rationally, I guess my linear programming teacher will be very pleased to see it, haha~

They are cooked the night before the Dragon Boat Festival, usually for 3-4 hours, and then soaked until the Dragon Boat Festival the next morning to eat. . . . . .

I am busy washing, wrapping and cooking every day, and after it is cooked, it is often snatched up. It feels good. There are two ways to make bacon rice dumplings. One is to mix the meat with rice, and add some salt and soy sauce to the rice. This method is suitable for wrapping sausages and bacon. The finished product is salty and delicious, and you will want to eat it. One is to make the meat into a filling, instead of mixing it with the rice, but fill the rice with the marinated meat.

Corn leaf and red date rice dumplings

Although the Dragon Boat Festival has passed for several days. But I still wrote a recipe for this rice dumpling to share. Just because this year's rice dumplings are made by myself, they are really ugly. So I looked for opportunities to practice my skills again. Today’s rice dumplings do not use reed leaves or bamboo leaves. When I went to the countryside to pick vegetables, I saw corn on the ground with wide green leaves. I thought, could it be used to make rice dumplings? So I folded a lot of corn leaves, and after cleaning them, I was able to make green rice dumplings. And the cooked rice dumplings still have the fragrance of corn leaves.

How to wrap triangular rice dumplings

Legend has it that Zongzi was created to commemorate Dr. Qu Yuan. After Qu Yuan threw himself into the river, the people along the Miluo River wrapped glutinous rice in Zongzi leaves and threw it into the river to avoid being bitten by fish. Legends are just legends after all, but with the fragrance of the rice dumpling leaves permeating the glutinous rice and adding a variety of sweet and salty fillings, who can resist such deliciousness? The famous Jiaxing Zongzi uses Ruo leaves to wrap the Zongzi, but we use reed leaves. Reed leaves are more slender than Ruo leaves, so three reed leaves are usually used to wrap a rice dumpling. Reed leaves are divided into backs. The way to distinguish them is to look at the leaf ribs. The concave side of the leaf ribs is the front side, and the convex side is the back side. When stacking the reed leaves, put them face up (in contact with the glutinous rice), and circle them into a funnel shape, with the outermost leaf at the bottom. The glutinous rice used to make meat dumplings must be marinated in soy sauce in advance. The meat is preferably fat or lean pork belly, which is also marinated in soy sauce in advance. My mother-in-law also soaks the rice with dried malan and then chops it up and wraps it in the meat dumplings. It has the fragrance of reed leaves and the fragrance of malan. It is extremely delicious. Sweet rice dumplings are usually made with adzuki beans, peanuts and glutinous rice mixed with a candied date wrapped in the center of the rice dumpling, which is also very sweet. My dad used to prefer bean paste rice dumplings, but the skill of making bean paste rice dumplings must be better, otherwise it is easy to get rice grains inside. This video mainly introduces how to wrap triangular rice dumplings. This is a common wrapping method in our local area. Welcome to my mother-in-law!

However, sweet rice dumplings are rich in sugar and calories, while salty rice dumplings are rich in oil and fat, making people stay away from them.

Speaking of zongzi, I have to be sentimental for a while. The year before last was the first time that I taught netizens how to make zongzi as a food instructor. The night before, I walked four streets to buy red dates and sago in Wumart Supermarket. I also went to the farmer's market to buy large yellow rice, round glutinous rice, zongzi leaves and blood glutinous rice. I planned to make a few different ones. Although I usually pack a pack, I don’t pay much attention to the appearance and it’s not that pretty, so I downloaded a video to watch it at night, then soaked a few ingredients and prepared it a little. Early the next morning, I went to find a table in the corner of the No. 1 cafeteria and took pictures while wrapping rice dumplings. Many aunties in the cafeteria came to learn the art on the spot. Haha~ I borrowed a good friend's SLR camera and went to the big rooftop of the girls' dormitory to take a set. I also went to the second floor of the canteen where almost no one went but the table was very beautiful to take a set. I was reading Yuan Mei's "Suiyuan Food List" at the time and used it as a prop~ Two years have passed in a flash. The rice dumplings I have eaten are divided into different categories, but there are only a few types of rice dumplings that I like. Candied date rice dumplings are the top favorite. No matter what novel styles and novel fillings, the old-fashioned rice dumplings are the most lovable and I can never get tired of eating them.

Red Bean and Bacon Zongzi Porridge

The Dragon Boat Festival has not yet arrived, and there are a lot of rice dumplings. There are no rice dumplings this year, and a steady stream of rice dumplings has already clogged the house. When I was a child, I was always afraid of not having enough, but now I am always afraid of having too much. Zongzi is not easy to digest if you eat too much. On a whim, I took apart the rice dumplings and cooked them into porridge. The porridge with thick soup should be much easier to digest than the rice dumplings tied tightly together, but the glycemic index should also be higher. I don't have diabetes, so I don't care about this. Just grab a rice dumpling, made with red beans and bacon, classic taste, but not as delicious as the homemade ones. Cold rice dumplings, especially those taken out of the refrigerator, are particularly strong. Warm them in a steamer first to make them easier to pull and loosen. Boil the rice until soft, put it in a bowl, and it looks like a layer of soup. After leaving it for a while, you can see that the soup has been completely absorbed by the rice and it melts in your mouth. It is very good. . .

lazy rice dumpling

Every time when I was drying the rice dumplings, I also heard the voices of other people. They said that they really wanted to make rice dumplings, but they were clumsy and couldn't make them. So I was thinking, can I design a rice dumpling that is easy to make and can taste the aroma of rice dumplings? After experiments, Guozi made this semi-naked lazy rice dumpling. Those who know how to make rice dumplings can also try this flavor once. I feel that the taste of half-naked rice dumplings is completely different from traditional rice dumplings. Traditional rice dumplings are completely wrapped and can be very glutinous when boiled in water. Half-naked rice dumplings are steamed, so they taste much less glutinous. Because they are half-naked, the rice on the surface will easily harden when exposed to air for a while after being taken out of the pot. It is recommended to make a small amount each time, as long as it is enough to eat, and it is best to eat it while it is hot. However, they all have the fragrance of reed leaves. If there are too many wraps and you haven’t finished eating them, wrap them in plastic wrap and steam them again before eating, which will make them more delicious! Here, Guozi also teaches you a lazier method, which is to put the washed glutinous rice into the pot while cooking, then cut the washed reed leaves into several large pieces, insert more into the rice, and add an appropriate amount of water. After cooking, the house will be filled with the fragrant smell of reed leaves, and you can easily taste the flavor inside the rice dumplings, but this is no longer called a rice dumpling.
