I believe that many people have eaten "hemp ball", especially children's favorite food, in Guangdong breakfast shops or breakfast stalls can see the figure of "hemp ball". Some people also call "hemp ball" "hemp ball", because it resembles a "ping-pong ball" and is wrapped in sesame seeds on the outside, so it is more appropriate to call it "hemp ball".
There are many methods of "hemp ball", there are hollow and filling; hollow hemp balls can be divided into glutinous rice hemp balls and flour hemp balls according to the different materials of the outer skin; hemp balls with inner filling are more types according to the different inverts, such as: purple potato hemp balls, bean sand hemp balls, taro hemp balls, sweet potato hemp balls and so on. However, no matter what kind of hemp ball, the practice is the same, but the ingredients are different.
Purple potato hemp balls
However, "hemp balls" seem simple and common, and it is difficult to do without mastering key skills if you want to be both delicious and beautiful.

——Start production——
Main ingredients: 500 grams of flour, dried lotus seeds, vegetable oil, white sugar, lotus paste filling, white sesame seeds to taste.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > first make the lotus paste filling in the raw material</h1>

Lotus seeds soaked
2: Put the lotus core into the pot, add the same amount of water as the lotus seeds and cook in a pressure cooker until soft and rotten.
3: Pour out the cooked lotus seeds, put them in a blender and add a little water to stir into a puree, heat another wok, pour in the lotus seeds puree, and slowly heat over low heat to let the water evaporate. Vegetable oil is added 3 times, slowly stir-fried over low heat, and each time you have to wait for the oil to be completely absorbed before adding.

4, after the oil is added, then add white sugar, continue to stir-fry slowly over low heat to prevent the bottom of the pot from scorching, and fry until the water in the lotus seed mud is completely evaporated, and the lotus seed mud becomes oily and bright into a ball.

2. Put the flour, vegetable oil and sugar into the container, add water and stir well, and roll into a smooth surface dough.
Knead the small dough
3: Cut the dough into small pieces, wrap in lotus paste filling, and stick white sesame seeds to make a ball.
The dough is dipped in sesame seeds

Fried crystal balls
In this way, the "crystal hemp ball" with glutinous outside, golden color and round ball is completed.
——The following is a small summary of the practice -
1, if there is no white sugar, you can also use brown sugar to replace, the knowledge color is slightly darker, no harm.
2, vegetable oil is best to choose vegetable oil that does not have a strong taste, otherwise the taste of the oil covers the fragrance of the lotus seed itself.
3. After sticking white sesame seeds, the hemp ball should be rubbed vigorously to avoid the sesame seeds falling off when frying.
