Homemade "Beijing Style Lantern Festival"(zi zhi jing wei er yuan xiao )

Homemade "Beijing Style Lantern Festival"

Introduction:

"On the 15th day of the first month of the previous year, we used to pack dumplings, or buy some ready-made frozen dumplings. But I don't feel as delicious as the Lantern Festival made by myself! In fact, it's much easier to make Yuanxiao than tangyuan. At least you don't need to close the noodles, and the size is well controlled. When making, just roll the stuffing in the rice dumpling powder two or three times to cook. Dumplings need to be packed one by one, and Yuanxiao can be shaken out a lot at a time. For example, if there are many people in the family, they can be shaken in large pots, while if there are few people, they can be shaken in small pots. The production of Yuanxiao uses thick dry glutinous rice flour, so it is more durable. This kind of thicker glutinous rice flour, also known as "Yuanxiao powder", is specially used for making yuanxiao, which is sold in grain stores in Beijing. After the Lantern Festival, if more glutinous rice flour is precipitated in the water, it can be further precipitated and filtered, and then used to make new year cake. If it is too little, it is unnecessary. The Lantern Festival I made this time is made of two kinds of fillings, wuren'er and hawthorn. The five kernel stuffing is still the leftover stuffing from the moon cake making on August 15 last year. It has been frozen in the freezer. Because the filling is mainly sugar, and then after freezing minus 20 degrees centigrade, it is not easy to deteriorate even if it is put on for a year. The Hawthorn stuffing used this time is also very easy. The golden cake in old Beijing is also called hawthorn cake. Mash it and add some fried flour and sweet scented osmanthus sauce to make it. If you like, you can add some sugar. This lantern festival with Beijing characteristics is as follows:

Production steps:

Step 1: making Hawthorn stuffing: crush the Hawthorn cake by hand.

Step 2: put a proper amount of sweet scented osmanthus sauce into it and stir well.

Step 3: pour in one fifth of the fried flour and stir well.

Step 4: the sweetness is moderate. If you like more sweetness, you can put in some white sugar.

Step 5: round the stuffing one by one by hand to form a ball (or cut it into even square shape according to the flat).

Step 6: pour the lantern powder into the steel basin, and then prepare a basin of water for standby.

Step 7: put the Hawthorn stuffing into the steel fence, and take it out immediately after a while in the clear water basin.

Step 8: control the water, and then put it into the dry powder basin and shake it twice to make the glutinous rice flour dip the stuffing evenly.

Step 9: pick out the Lantern Festival with the first dry powder by hand, put it into the fence, and then soak it in the clear water basin again.

Step 10: control the water immediately, roll on the dry powder again, and repeat the operation for more than three times.

Step 11: if you like to eat some thick skin, you can operate it again, and then put it into a clean plate.

Step 12: the operation procedure of five kernel stuffing Lantern Festival is the same as above.

Step 13: Boil the water in the pot and put it into the Lantern Festival. Stick the spoon to the bottom of the pot and rotate to push the Lantern Festival to prevent sticking to the pot.

Step 14: bring the water to a boil again, add some cold water and repeat for three times.

Step 15: when the Lantern Festival comes to the surface, cook for 3-5 minutes.

Step 16: take out the cooked Yuanxiao with soup.

Step 17: serve separately and eat hot.

Materials required:

Coarse glutinous rice flour: 350g

Five kernel stuffing: 200g per piece

Hawthorn cake: 300g per piece

Fried flour: 60g

Sweet scented osmanthus sauce: 20g

Note: the characteristics of the Lantern Festival: white color, soft glutinous, thin skin, big stuffing, easy to learn. Warm tips: 1. There are many kinds of fillings. The simplest one is sweet scented osmanthus white sugar. Just put 20 grams of sweet scented osmanthus paste in one kilo of white sugar, add some fried flour and lard, mix well, and then put some green and red silk in it. You can also make black sesame stuffing. You need to stir the fried black sesame with a cooking machine, and then add sugar and flour. 2. If the amount of production is large, you can use a large basin and a larger bamboo screen instead of the fence. When you shake the Lantern Festival, because of the heavy weight, you can slide the rolling pin back and forth under the basin. The following five people in the family can use steel wire fence and smaller basin. The Beijing flavor of the big spoon and the traditional Lantern Festival are ready, ha ha! For your reference!
