How to make the colorful dumplings for Lantern Festival

Eating is a very simple thing, because all you have to do is open your mouth. But in fact, eating is really not that simple, because for the sake of your own body, you must eat healthily. In order to eat healthily, let me introduce to you how to make Yuanxiao dumplings.

1. Prepare ingredients.

2. Wash the pumpkin, peel it, cut it into pieces, put it in the microwave for 4 minutes, and mash the pumpkin with a spoon.

3. Add pumpkin puree to glutinous rice flour and knead into a smooth dough (no water is added here).

4. Add appropriate amount of water to the glutinous rice flour and knead it into a white glutinous rice flour dough.

5. Add white oil to sesame powder (which contains walnut powder, peanut powder and cotton sugar) and knead it into sesame filling.

6. Then roll them into small sesame balls. Similarly, roll the red bean paste into small red bean paste balls.

7. Start making the glutinous rice balls. Take a dough, shape it into a bow-shaped circle with your hands, and then put in the red bean paste.

8. Slowly rub your hands and mouth into a ball.

9. The dumplings were soon wrapped (some of them were two-color dumplings, which were made by overlapping four pieces of two colors alternately and then flipping them 90°; not photographed).

10. Bring the water to a boil and put in the wrapped dumplings.

11. After boiling over high heat, pour in a bowl of cold water, wait for it to boil again, then adjust to low heat. When you see the glutinous rice balls float to the surface of the water, they are cooked.
