Instructions

1
100 grams of pitted red dates.
2
Add 500 grams of water to the electric cooker, bring it to a boil, and let it cool.
3
A small cup of horse hoof powder.
4
Pour the smashed red date pulp into a fine mesh strainer, and use a large spoon to press out the red date juice and pulp. Be careful not to get the date skins into the bowl, as it will affect the taste!
5
Use the same cup you just used to measure the hoof powder to fill two cups of red date water.
6
Mix the powder evenly with the red date water.
7
Add two cups of water to the electric cooking pot, put in an appropriate amount of brown sugar powder and bring to a boil, then scoop a spoonful of starch paste and pour it into the boiling brown sugar water, stirring until it thickens.
8
Stir the thickened brown sugar water together with the rice flour slurry, pour it onto a plate once the water boils and cook until done. If there is too much, you can steam it in small batches using molds.
9
Place in the mold, bring water to a boil, and steam for six to eight minutes.

Let it cool and remove it from the mold, then it's ready to eat!
