Chung cake. TET indispensable dishes

in #food7 years ago

Vietnamese idioms have sentences ''Đói giỗ cha, no ba ngày Têt''. Tet people come to, even though they are poor, they try to borrow and manage to have enough to eat for three days of Tet so that they can "grow old rice bowls and have new clothes." Moreover, despite the hunger year-round, until the New Year, everyone, especially children are often eaten enough. New Year's Eve meals are more plentiful, richer and more chic than regular meals. So people often called "eat Tet". Apart from rice, Tet holidays also include:

Chưng cake:

Ingredient:

  • Glutinous Rice (we pay attention to choose the large grains of rice, aromatic new way to make the most durable plastic cake).
  • Green beans (select new beans, gold, beans, seeds).
  • Three (just lean, fat and thick, thin).
  • Spices: salt, pepper.
  • Leaves of banh chung (leaves are not young and not old).
  • Ties made of ductile fiber.

guide:

  • Step 1

Green leaves are soaked for 2 h. Pay attention to clean and pick up the bad seeds, the way to pack the cake does not need to mold at home the most delicious. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and then bring to a boil.

Pour the mixture, using a pestle, then add a little pepper, then grasp the balls into equal.

Toss three pieces only washed, cut pieces about 2 cm thick, mixed with some salt, pepper and then marinated meat.

  • Step 2

Sticky rice is soaked for about 2 hours, then washed to add a tablespoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of grain wedges in the shock.

Leaves to buy clean water to wash, then cut the leaf to live out.

Dry the leaves before the package

  • Step 3

We stack 4 leaves perpendicular to each other, 2 leaves under the right face down, 2 leaves on the right side up.

To make the cake square square, beautifully without the mold, it is best to use the bowl to measure rice. We give about a bowl of rice in the middle of the leaf.

Then multiply the rice. Add some rice to the kernel, hand to level the rice to cover up the kernel.

We hold the leaves on the right and left folded in turn. Note the folding in the right hands, the way to pack a glutinous rice cake at home is nice and square. Hide the edges folded inside.

Finally fold the top of the bottom leaf, and fold the left leaf to form a square shape for the cake.

  • Step 4 :Boiled banh chung

The lotus leaf was tucked at the top, folded to the bottom of the pot, then placed the cake up. Drain the whole cake, then boil the fire to the boiling water, reduce the fire.

Approximately 1 hour to check the water level. Reduce water, add water to boiling water, do not use water. Boiled in about 8- 10 hours, and bread.

Use the clean cleaner to wipe the side of the cake, then place the cool cake. Use a thin board on the cake, then pile up heavy weight. Do so until the cake is firmly browned until cool.

The package is a very long and meticulous process, requiring the person to be finicky from the selection of raw materials until boiled cake. To ensure the deliciousness of the cake.
