Shanghai Glutinous Rice Wine Dessert Soup

1. Prepare the Dough

Take 1 cup of glutinous rice powder and mix it with 0.5 cup of hot water. Combine these in a well and knead the mixture on a clean work surface for about 7 minutes until the dough feels firm and elastic.

2. Cut and Shape the Dough

Cut the dough into four equal pieces. Roll each piece into a log shape, and then cut these logs into small nuggets, roughly 0.5-inch in size. You should end up with around 120 nuggets.

3. Cook the Nuggets

Bring 2.5 cups of cold water to a boil in a pot. Stir in 0.25 cup of sugar until it dissolves completely. Carefully add the dough nuggets into the boiling water. Let them cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until they rise to the surface.

4. Add Sweet Wine Rice

To the pot, add 0.67 cup of Shanghai Sweet Wine Rice along with 0.5 cup of its liquid. Allow the mixture to return to a boil.

5. Add Beaten Egg

Once boiling, slowly pour in the lightly beaten egg while continuously stirring the soup with a cooking fork to create strands of cooked egg throughout the soup.

6. Serve

Turn off the heat and ladle the soup into a small, heated dish for serving. Enjoy your Shanghai Glutinous Rice Wine Dessert Soup warm.
