Orange Red Paste

Hello everyone, I'm Boss Ao!

Friends often say that Boss Ao makes so many delicious things, and your wife must be lucky. Actually, my wife can do things that are not less than me, and she does them even better.

How can this be said? Because if she does anything, I have to say it's delicious. If she's not sincere at all, Xiaoxin will say: 'You're her wife, how can you say her food isn't good? In the family, the eldest is the eldest, you can't do that!' Even Xiaoxin, who hasn't formed a complete sentence yet, will follow her sister and say: 'No, no!'

Okay, okay, if children defend their mothers, this is the greatest blessing for a father, I give up!

Seeing the kids are so sweet, I'll give you a soft candy ~

Tips

1If you don't want to make candied oranges, what's a simpler way?

You can buy candied oranges directly, or make jam from fresh orange or tangerine peels after soaking in water. However, simplifying doesn't necessarily mean it's easier, because simplifying usually means adjusting the recipe or method. If you blindly copy it, it might fail because of the change in proportion

2Can I omit red dates powder?

Red dates powder is a natural coloring agent made by cultivating red date mold on rice. Adding a little makes the orange red paste look better. If you don't have it, you can omit it

3I only have regular glutinous rice flour, I don't have glutinous rice flour, can I use it?

Glutinous rice flour with higher precision, it's more delicate and white, it has better water absorption. Changing the material will cause changes in the proportion of the recipe. If you don't want to fail, please buy it honestly

4How to store it?

Dry and seal it for 5 days.
