How to make rice cakes without touching your teeth?

Rice cakes have a long history and are one of the traditional snack foods in China. The rice cake is steamed with glutinous rice or rice flour, which is convenient to process and make, resistant to storage and diverse to eat, so it is very popular with people.

There are many ways to make rice cakes, and people in different regions will adjust the materials according to their own preferences and habits.

Among them, rice flour (sticky rice flour and glutinous rice flour) is the most common.

Ingredients: sticky rice flour (rice flour), glutinous rice flour, sugar and osmanthus (this can't be put).

Making:

1. Slowly add clear water to sticky rice flour and glutinous rice flour, knead into granules, grab a handful by hand, knead into a ball and pour it into a basin;

2. After sieving the rice flour, add sugar and osmanthus, stir well, and brush the mold with a layer of oil (easy to demould);

3. Pour the stirred rice flour into the mold, don't press it, tap it gently, scrape it with a scraper after filling it, and then put some raisins, red dates and candied dates on the rice cake (it's ok if you don't put it);

4. Steam on the fire for 20 minutes.

Tip: rice cakes must be steamed at one time.

Another way is to make rice into rice slurry.

Ingredients: rice, glutinous rice, sugar, yeast.

1. Soak rice and glutinous rice in water one day in advance;

2. Drain water and dry rice and glutinous rice;

3. Pour the dried rice into the cooking machine and add water to make rice slurry (the taste will be more delicate after several times);

3. Melt the yeast with warm water (never use boiling water, otherwise the yeast will be scalded to death);

4. Pour the yeast water into the rice slurry and stir evenly;

5. Let the rice slurry containing yeast water stand for 20-30 minutes;

6. Brush the mold with a layer of oil and pour the rice slurry into the mold;

7. Steam for 20 minutes.

In some places, flour, cassava flour and milk are added to rice flour or rice slurry to improve the taste. We can add them according to our own preferences and eating habits.

If the rice cake is sticky, the ratio of glutinous rice flour to rice flour can be adjusted appropriately, and the amount of glutinous rice flour can be reduced as much as possible, and the amount of rice flour can be increased (the viscosity of rice is much less than that of glutinous rice), or cassava flour and flour can be added to rice flour to reduce the viscosity of glutinous rice.
