1. Ingredients: appropriate amount of wood ash, appropriate amount of glutinous rice, appropriate amount of sugar, appropriate amount of honey, appropriate amount of rice ball leaves, appropriate amount of cotton thread
2. Put the appropriate amount of wood ash in a bamboo basket and boil a pot of water. Pour boiling water over the wood ash and place a bowl underneath. Flowing water is gray water. The resulting water must be filtered a second time.
3. After the filtered gray water is decanted, clean gray water is obtained and used for soaking the rice. The rice must first be washed three times in clean water and drained.
4. Soak the rice for about 24 hours, then take it out and drain some water before making rice balls. (Soak during the day, at least overnight)
5. Prepared rice ball sheets. (This is the sheet used pto make rice balls in my hometown. It must be boiled and rinsed before use)
6. First, take a large sheet and hold it in your hand.
7. Place a layer of small leaves on top of the large leaves, then place two flat leaves in the middle.
8. Put an appropriate amount of rice.
9. Fold the right side first, then fold the left side and pinch it.
10. Then hold it with your right hand and bend it. (If the loose leaves are too long, you can cut some of them)
11. Wrap one end in the same way. (When adjusted, the top will be staggered and the rice will not leak)
12. Place the center section of the cotton thread under the middle of the rice ball and move the cotton. thread from the outer end to the middle of the rice ball. Go back.
13. Just attach it.
It takes five steps to prepares rice balls in vegetable ash water.
1. Cut off the heads and tails of the rice ball leaves and wash them cleanly. Boil them in a large saucepan until they change color. Remove the rice balls. Add a little oil when cooking. be easier to disassemble when eating the rice balls.
2. The long sticky rice used to make gray water rice balls is better because the long sticky rice is not very sticky. The refreshing and slightly sticky glutinous rice is very delicious dipped in sugar. filtered by soaking the plant ashes in water. Yes, only ash can be used, not carbon. Gray water filtered with carbon is black. Pour the washed glutinous rice into the gray water and let it soak overnight. should be light**, so the cooked rice balls. The best is to reserve a little gray water for cooking the rice balls.
3. Onceeverything is ready, you can start preparing rice balls.
4. Put the wrapped gray water rice balls into the pot, add water to cover all the rice balls, add part of the gray water to cook the rice balls, bring to a boil over high heat then set the heat to medium. If gray water is boiled for a long time, it will become stale. You can change the water once in the middle and continue cooking. The smaller bag will cook for two hours, and the larger bag will. must be cooked for three hours.
5. Pour honey on it and eat.
