There is no glutinous rice grown at home, and it is rarely used as a staple food.

It's just that sometimes I get hungry, so I cook some glutinous rice, eight-treasure rice, or glutinous rice, glutinous rice dumpling and other snacks to satisfy my hunger.

Buy tens of catties of glutinous rice and keep it at home for backup, and it can be eaten for a year.

Glutinous rice is indispensable for making zongzi.

Zongzi, namely Zongzhen, commonly known as Zongzi, is made of glutinous rice as the main material, mixed with egg yolk, meat, red dates and other fillings, and then wrapped in Ruo leaves, with various shapes.

Zongzi has a long history. It was originally used as a tribute to worship ancestors and gods. It is one of the traditional foods with the deepest historical and cultural accumulation in China and has a long history.

In the perception of Chinese people, if you don’t eat zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival, it’s just a fake Dragon Boat Festival.

Zongzi is to the Dragon Boat Festival, just like moon cakes are to the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Miaomiao poured some water into the bucket, and then added straw ash soup for soaking. It needs to soak for a while before it can taste.

During this period of time, Miaomiao was not idle, but went to the back of the house with Lin Ye to pick palm leaves.

The leaves used to make zongzi in Taoyuan Village are Ruo leaves.

Behind the clinic is a piece of bamboo, which grows widely and can be seen everywhere.

Lin Ye and Miaomiao started picking bamboo baskets on their backs, and picked a lot in a short while.

It's okay to have more, this kind of leaves can be stored for a long time.

After picking the brown leaves, Lin Ye picked some brown hairs to bind the zongzi.

It is also possible to tie it with a rope, but in Lin Ye's childhood knowledge, the leaves of this plant are used to make zongzi. They are torn into thin strips, which are very strong. After boiling, they can be used as ropes.

After taking the palm leaf home, Miaomiao started to handle the palm leaf, while Lin Ye turned on the live broadcast.

It may be a good decision to make zongzi live.

After the live broadcast room started, many water friends flooded in immediately.

"Return of missing persons."

"Return of missing persons."

"Welcome the host to go home and watch often."

"Good guy, it's been two days since the broadcast, and I thought the host had forgotten about the live broadcast."

"Fake corpse? It's not the first seven yet."

Lin Ye...

Isn't it just yesterday that the broadcast didn't start, what about these water friends?

It's okay to play tricks, in moderation!

"Ahem, that's too much, water friends, don't like personal attacks."

Lin Ye talked about the reason for the lack of broadcasting yesterday, because everyone in Mushroom House helped plant the rice seedlings, and because he was a little tired.

Water friend? ?

"You might as well not say it."

"My resentment has deepened."

"Anchor, you don't love us anymore, such a good benefit, why don't you broadcast it live?"

During this period of time, Yearning has also broadcast several episodes.

Careful water friends found that there is a one-month difference between the program timeline of Yearning 5 and the timeline of Lin Ye's live broadcast.

That is to say, the program broadcast now is the content recorded a month ago.

Many of these variety shows are like this, they are recorded and filmed in advance, and then broadcast.

That's why the water friends are so indignant.

Spoilers are cool for a while, and spoilers are always cool.

"Next time." Lin Ye prevaricated casually.

Miaomiao soaked the zongzi leaves in clean water, scrubbed them, washed them clean, and picked them up.

When the water friends saw the zongzi leaves, their eyes lit up.

"The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, is the host making zongzi?"

"666... ​​We are in the city, so it's better to buy some food at the supermarket, it's too much trouble to pack it yourself."

Indeed, from picking brown leaves, soaking glutinous rice, to wrapping, to cooking, every link is essential, and if you want to make egg yolk meat dumplings, fresh meat dumplings, red date dumplings, you need to prepare various ingredients in advance.

Thinking about it makes it troublesome.

Miaomiao hasn't started packing yet.

While handling the zongzi leaves, Miaomiao popularized some tips on making zongzi with the water friends.

The live broadcast these days has made Miaomiao a qualified anchor.

She already knows how to find topics and interact with water friends.

It is also important to use dried zongzi leaves or fresh zongzi leaves to make zongzi.

If it is dried zong leaves, it needs to be soaked for a period of time in advance. This is because the dried zong leaves are relatively dry, so they should be soaked the night before, so that the dried zong leaves can absorb water and enhance their toughness, so that they will not break easily when making zongzi up.

Fresh zong leaves are more resilient, so they don’t need to be soaked in advance like dry zong leaves. After cleaning, they can be scalded with boiling water for 3 minutes.

When it is hot, add some salt to the water, which can not only sterilize the bacteria, but also increase the toughness of the leaves.

So that it will not break due to bending and folding, it can also make the color of the leaves more emerald green.

"learnt."

"Miaomiao knows a lot, the clever little cook..."

"I didn't expect that the brown leaves used to make zongzi are so exquisite."

###Chapter 253 Making Zongzi###

After the brown leaves were cooked, Miaomiao went to look at the glutinous rice soaked in the bucket. Before eating, Miaomiao had already started soaking it for about three hours.

It takes at least three hours to soak the glutinous rice. If the time is too short, the wrapped rice dumplings will not be boiled easily, and the taste will be much worse.

But three hours is about the same.

Miaomiao brought the bucket over.

Then start preparing the ingredients.

"Brother Ye, what kind of stuffing do you like to eat?" Miaomiao asked Lin Ye.

"Meat dumplings are fine, of course, if there are meat dumplings with egg yolk, it will be even more beautiful." Lin Ye thought for a while and said.

Egg yolk refers to salted duck eggs. This family has them. Miaomiao first fished out the glutinous rice, drained the water, and then found some boiled salted duck eggs, peeled off the shells, and separated the egg whites from the yolks.

Protein can be used for dinner, but it will not be wasted.

Even salted duck eggs that have been peeled off their shells can be stored for a few days. If they are stored in the refrigerator, they can be stored for a longer period of time.

Half of the bacon is thin and half is fat, so the meat dumplings taste better.

The fresh zongzi leaves are mixed with the aroma of fresh meat, which makes people salivate. Adding an egg yolk adds a touch of sweetness to the salty zongzi. It is waxy but not mushy, fat but not greasy, fragrant and delicious, salty Moderately sweet.

Now the yolk of salted duck eggs is still widely used, such as zongzi and moon cakes are much more colorful because of salted egg yolk.

After Miaomiao prepared the egg yolk, bacon, and red dates and other ingredients, the glutinous rice on the side was almost drained.

Lin Ye found salt and oil, added an appropriate amount, and stirred well.

When Lin Ye and Miaomiao got busy, they stopped posting barrage.

But the water friends all expressed their understanding.

It is easy to get distracted while working and live broadcasting.

And a word that is very popular now is called immersive.

Doing a thing requires a lot of experience and immersion in it, so that you can experience the fun of it.

"Although the anchor and Miaomiao rarely communicate, the cooperation is really tacit."

"This is the life I yearn for. Yearning 5 next door, I suggest you come and learn."

"+1, in the first few episodes, it was okay to have anchors participating, but later on, I gradually let myself go, especially in the latest episode, I invited a duo of lazy people, Li Dan and Chen Chichi... Good guy, put me To the diaphragm, I almost vomited blood."

"+1, Chen Chichi is better, although he is reluctant, but he has done a lot of work, but Li Dan...lazy cancer is late, all kinds of negativity are too much."

"There are also people who say that the program group deliberately designed their characters... But I really don't understand. The program group managed to build up some word-of-mouth after the first few episodes, but why did they want to smash the brand?"

"With all due respect, my younger sister has done more work than the two big men, and she hasn't complained yet. It's a bit too much for them to be on the show. It's so tiring to open and close my mouth. I don't want to move..."

Lin Ye didn't know much about these things. It was raining later, and the filming of the show continued one after another. Except for occasionally going to teach Tai Chi, Lin Ye didn't know the content of the filming very well.

When teaching Tai Chi, Lin Ye rarely asked about the filming of the show.

"Brother Ye, let me make some rice dumplings first." Miaomiao said.

Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, there is no saying that only one kind of zongzi is made.

White rice dumplings, meat rice dumplings, egg yolk rice dumplings and other rice dumplings should be wrapped with some.

Choose according to personal taste.

White rice dumplings are pure glutinous rice without any ingredients added.

If you just eat white rice dumplings, few people will like them, but if you add some white sugar, it will be a rare delicacy.

Take a bite, the aroma of zongzi, the sweetness of sugar, and a variety of flavors explode in the mouth, it is simply enjoyable.

Miaomiao pulled out two palm leaves, aligned them and folded them in half to form a cone.

Then add a spoonful of glutinous rice into it. After it is full, cover it with brown leaves. The extra leaves cover the sides of the zongzi, wrapping it tightly without revealing a single gap, and a zongzi is formed.

Tied up with brown hair, Miaomiao admired her masterpiece.

"Miaomiao, the rice dumplings you made look good." Lin Ye boasted.

He was telling the truth, Miaomiao's movements were done in one go, and she knew at a glance that she was an old hand at making zongzi, and she must have made a lot of dumplings before.

Continuing, Miaomiao smiled at Lin Ye, without stopping the movements of her hands.

After a while, the rice dumplings were covered with Shau Kei.

Miaomiao made a small mark on the white rice dumplings so that different types of rice dumplings can be distinguished.

Lin Ye made meat dumplings with egg yolk.

Put a spoonful of glutinous rice on the bottom of the palm leaves, then add egg yolk and bacon, cover with a layer of glutinous rice, fill it up and compact it.

The next steps are the same as white rice dumplings.

In fact, it is not difficult to make zongzi after mastering the skills.

But the zongzi made by Lin Ye was placed in front of the zongzi made by Miaomiao, um...

There is no harm without comparison.

The water friends in the live broadcast room all burst out laughing.

"The four don't look like zongzi wrapped by the anchor?"

"Anchor: It's ugly, ahem, it's really ugly."

"Don't talk about the anchor like that. If the anchor can wrap it up and tie the knot, it is already worthy of encouragement, haha."

Miaomiao couldn't help laughing at Zongzi, but she still thought Brother Ye did a great job.

"Brother Ye, you've done a good job." Miaomiao said from the bottom of her heart.

"I also think that rice dumplings don't care about appearance, as long as they taste good." Lin Ye was not shocked, but continued to wrap them.

After all the zongzi were wrapped, Miaomiao took the zongzi to the pot to steam.

Pour water into the pot, put a large stainless steel column on it, arrange the zongzi one by one, and start steaming.

Steam it for 1-2 hours, and then you can eat it.
