Brewing method of Hakka glutinous rice wine with wide application

Yellow rice wine is the most common brewed wine in our life. Since childhood, I have seen many different wines brewed in my classmates' hometown, among which glutinous rice wine is the most. Naturally, glutinous rice wine is more authentic in Hakka.

The ingredients of glutinous rice wine are: first-class glutinous rice, distiller's yeast and clear water. The ingredients used in Hakka glutinous rice wine are: glutinous rice (40 kg), wine cakes (more than a dozen) and boiling water (a pot). Huishui black glutinous rice uses the following ingredients: black glutinous rice (starch content accounts for more than 90% of total starch), saccharifying starter (black glutinous rice wine Rhizopus koji, saccharification rate is more than 33%), and brewing water (groundwater within the protection scope of Lianjiang River basin, the water quality meets the relevant national drinking water requirements).

1. Prepare about 40 kg of glutinous rice (the quantity depends on the situation), wash a large porcelain jar (big mouth) and buy more than a dozen wine cakes (for glutinous rice fermentation);

2. Cook all the glutinous rice, then put the glutinous rice in a large plate and cool it to room temperature before cooking (like rice, you can cook it in batches without boiling water); At the same time, boil a pot of boiling water to let the water temperature drop to almost human body temperature (useful when making wine); Grinding all wine cakes into powder for later use;

3. Sprinkle the wine cake powder on the glutinous rice while stirring. At this time, the glutinous rice will stick to your hand and will not fall off easily. Don't be afraid to touch some freshly cooled boiling water. This water is to prevent sticky rice from sticking to hands. Second, the old glutinous rice is a bit dry; As for what you can imagine without running water (or explain, it is inevitable that other bacteria will pollute glutinous rice).

After mixing well, put the glutinous rice into a vat (don't fill it up, leaving a third space), then put the clean bowl on the rice flour and press it in (mark it so that you can check the fermentation situation in a few days), and finally seal the mouth with newspaper, tie it with rope, then seal it with plastic bags (if it is winter, add a quilt on the surface) and put it in the dark of the room, so that the first step is completed;

You can smell the wine in three days, add nearly ten kilograms of white wine in fifteen days, and it will be fine in twenty days.
