How to cook the special food of Baba Ai Ye?

This kind of wormwood Baba is very unique and delicious, which not only combines the bitterness of wormwood, but also the fragrance of grapefruit leaves and, most importantly, the sweetness of sesame. This multi-faceted delicious food is really happy to be intertwined. Not only old people and children can eat it, so make a delicious dessert at home and give it to your family.

This mugwort Baba is not only very simple, but also the raw materials. Prepare the necessary mugwort leaves, sesame seeds, walnuts, add a little sugar and water, and grapefruit leaves. The raw materials are all ready.

First of all, the first step is to wrap sesame seeds in gauze and wash them. My method is to put them in the microwave oven and let them dry for three minutes. Sesame will not smell dry in the pot if it is dried in the microwave oven, but it will be more convenient to use the microwave oven. I am a lazy person, so I chose this usage, and the dried sesame seeds will not burn off. If a friend thinks it is more convenient to fry in the pot and wants to fry sesame seeds with more fragrance, he can put them in the pot.

Step 2, add the dried sesame seeds into the walnut kernel and crush it with high-speed blender. This will help to add the right amount of sugar and water and stir the stuffing. The ratio of sesame, walnut and sugar is 2: 1: 2. You can add more sugar if you want to eat sweet food, but I think it's easy to get bored after adding polysaccharide, so I usually put less sugar, so you can adjust it according to your taste.

Step 3: Boil the Folium Artemisiae Argyi with water, then pick it up and drain it. There is also high-speed blender to make juice and put it in a bowl for later use. Step 4, put the mugwort juice that has just been beaten by high-speed blender into glutinous rice flour. Mix the two, and add a little peanut oil when kneading the dough, so that the made wormwood Baba is not easy to stick to your hands.

The last step is to wrap the moxa balls we just made into stuffing, put them on grapefruit leaves and steam them in a pot. After adding grapefruit leaves, the taste will be very fragrant. After the fire is cooked, you can turn off the fire for about 20 minutes and steam for 10 minutes. The cooked wormwood Baba is the best at this time.

It's simple. No matter whether you have eaten this special food before, I strongly recommend you to try it!
