Detailed Steps for Cooking Cute Glutinous Rice Balls – Cat Paw Glutinous Rice Balls
Prepare the ingredients.
Weigh out 200g of glutinous rice flour and divide it into two portions of 20g and 180g.
First, make the “pancake mom”. Knead the 20g portion of glutinous rice flour into a small dough with a little warm water.
Put a pot of water on the stove and bring it to a boil.
Put the small glutinous rice dough into the boiling water and cook until it floats. This cooked dough is the “pancake mom”.
Tear the “pancake mom” into small pieces and knead it into the 180g portion of glutinous rice flour. Slowly add an appropriate amount of warm water and knead it into a dough.
Knead the glutinous rice dough in the bowl with the strength of your wrists for more than ten minutes.
Knead the dough until it does not crack and can be easily pulled into a long strip.
Take a quarter of the dough and add 1-2 drops of red dye to it. Knead it into a uniform pink dough.
Divide the pink and white dough into 20 small portions each.
Take a white dough and flatten it with your hand. Then press it into a piece with a thick middle and thin edges, and place it on the tiger’s mouth.
Put the filling on top and wrap it up like a dumpling.
Close the opening and press it slightly flat with your hand.
Take a small portion of pink dough and shape it into the shape of a cat’s paw pad, and press it onto the white dough.
Boil the glutinous rice balls in boiling water until cooked and ready to serve.
