How to make honey glutinous rice lotus root

People cannot live without food from the moment they are born. There are many things we need to eat throughout our lives, and diet is closely related to our physical and mental health. Many patients in reality are caused by eating. Therefore, eating well can not only beautify your skin, but also prevent diseases. Now, I will introduce how to cook honey glutinous rice lotus root.

3.2 Cut the lotus root at a slight tilt. Let me tell you here that when you buy lotus roots, do not ask the vendor to remove the two ends of the lotus root. Just slightly remove the part with the lotus roots. Otherwise the rice will leak out while making. Clean the black parts at both ends of the lotus root.

4. After stuffing all the glutinous rice, the toothpicks we prepared will come into play. Because the toothpicks are thin, I use two to make one to embed. Place the cut lotus root head on the lotus root in its original position, and insert two toothpicks into the edges of the lotus root. It is best to insert them diagonally so that they are more secure. If it's difficult to insert, just insert it a little bit, then tap the toothpick gently a few times with the side of the knife, and it will go in easily. Remember to be gentle, our lotus roots are very fragile. Press the toothpick two-thirds of the way in.

5. Put the lotus root in a pot that can accommodate its volume. Don’t use an iron pot or it will turn black. Add water until the lotus root is covered by one finger. Bring to a boil over high heat and add rock sugar, brown sugar and red dates. I ran out of red dates, so I didn't put them in. In fact, if you add a little bit of it, it will have the special fragrance of dates. It takes 40 minutes to use a pressure cooker, and at least three hours to use this kind of pot. There are also electric casseroles that are specifically used for stewing things, and it is even better to stew them overnight. I usually simmer it for four to five hours. A large bowl is placed on top of the pot because the lid is too light and the steam can easily escape, so this is more convenient.

6. Actually, this was not stewed long enough. It would have been more beautiful if it was stewed a little longer. . What to do with a pot of swollen sweet soup? ? ? Hahaha, we can put some of it in another pot, add some osmanthus sugar, some starch, boil it, and pour it on the honey lotus root. It will be more delicious. The remaining soup can be used to cook red bean soup, fruit sweet soup, whatever you like, just improvise. .

A healthy diet is very important for a person, and now that you have mastered the recipe of honey glutinous rice and lotus root, why don’t you create a new healthy eating environment for yourself? Don't hesitate, go to the kitchen and cook.
