Add appropriate amount of white sugar to the bowl to increase sweetness.

Add a small amount of lard, which should be melted in advance, because lard can increase the viscosity of the filling.

Then mix the fillings in the bowl evenly.

A few minutes later, Li Heng grabbed a handful of stuffing, kneaded it into a ball with his hands, and then spread out his palms.

The fillings in the palm of my hand still stuck together and didn’t fall apart.

When it reaches this state, it means that the filling has been mixed well.

Next, hundreds of kilograms of fillings are "kneaded" into balls slightly smaller than egg yolks. This is the final form of the fillings.

It took Li Heng about a minute to make more than 200 black stuffed meatballs.

Of course, this is only enough for them to eat. The rest will have to be prepared after they finish eating.

Put the kneaded filling in the refrigerator for a while, not too long, ten to twenty minutes is enough.

While waiting for the filling to take shape, Li Heng's hands were not idle.

He first took a small piece, about ten pounds in weight, from the glutinous rice ball he had kneaded earlier.

Roll the glutinous rice dough into long strips and then cut it into smaller pieces.

Then roll the small dough into a round shape, then flatten it to make it into a slightly thicker round cake like dumpling skin.

After the filling is frozen, you can start making the dumplings.

For the whole wrapping process, just like the previous process of rolling the stuffing into meatballs, Li Heng adopted a more convenient, contactless method.

Soon, more than two hundred round dumplings were wrapped.

The last step is to cook the dumplings.

After the water in the pot boils, add the glutinous rice balls.

Cover the pot, the water in the pot will boil again, and the dumplings will float to the surface of the water.

Continue cooking for two to three minutes, then remove the dumplings and place in a bowl.

It's a pity that it's not the Lantern Festival now, so it's not very appropriate! (?′?`?)

"Hey! Brother Li Heng, can you please serve it faster?"

The first bowl was for Xiao Chi. She stood on tiptoe, put her hands on the stove, and looked at Li Heng eagerly, scooping the dumplings into the bowl one by one.

She wanted to just pick up the pot and put it in her mouth.

"Why are you in such a hurry? You have to wait until they are cooked first!"

Li Heng handed a soup bowl to Xiao Chi and said unhappily.

Just as I served Xiao Chi a bowl, I heard footsteps at the kitchen door.

"Sigh~~"

"What a familiar smell. Is it brown sugar rice cake for dinner again?"

Lin Shiqi took a deep breath, took out the bowl and chopsticks, and asked Li Hengdao.

"This is called Tangyuan, and like ciba, it is also made of glutinous rice flour."

"You guys really know how to pick the right time. It's here right after it's cooked!"

Li Heng served a bowl to Lu Xiaoxiao and herself, and also made a few jokes to the others.

"Hahaha~ Of course! Even though we are not in the kitchen, our hearts are always there."

A group of people walked to the stove, talking and laughing, picked up the spoons, and looked into the pot.

As a result, I only saw a pot of leftover soup from cooking glutinous rice balls.

Li Heng didn’t cook too many dumplings for the first pot, just enough for him and the two little ones.

"Why, why is it gone?"

"Junior brother, why didn't you leave any for us?"

No wonder Li Heng said that they were good at choosing time, it turns out that the key point is here.

"How do I know when you guys will come over? If the dumplings are cooked for too long, the taste will deteriorate."

"The raw dumplings are placed next to you. You can cook them yourself. We will eat first!"

After Li Heng finished speaking, he and the two kids went to the cafeteria next door.

There must be enough dumplings, and he won't get involved in how to distribute them.

The three of them found a small table and sat around it.

"Brother Li Heng, young lady, I'll start first!"

As soon as Xiao Chi sat down, he didn't care whether it was hot or not. He scooped one up impatiently and put it into his mouth.

"What do you think? Is it too sweet?"

Li Heng also scooped up a glutinous rice ball, which felt a little hot, so he prepared to let it cool down for a while.

The reason why he asked Xiao Chi this was because the sugar content of glutinous rice is very high, and he had added a little sugar to it when he was making the filling.

Worried it might be too sweet.

"Patta~Patta~"

Xiao Chi blinked, shook his head in confusion, and said, "I don't know either!"

"Don't know? Then what did you eat just now?"

Li Heng was a little puzzled. He had just clearly seen Xiao Chi eating a glutinous rice dumpling. Could it be that he was dazzled and saw it wrong?

"I ate the glutinous rice balls."

Xiao Chi felt that Brother Li Heng's question was a bit strange. She paused for a moment and then continued.

"But I ate too fast just now and couldn't taste what the glutinous rice balls tasted like."

After saying that, she nodded her head again, then smiled sweetly at Li Heng and went on to eat her dumplings.

"What a big throat this must be! Do you not even need to chew the glutinous rice balls? Do you swallow them whole?"

Li Heng couldn't help but admire Xiao Chi. When she ate the second one, she learned from the previous lesson and finally used her teeth to taste the flavor of the glutinous rice balls.

After waiting for a minute, the glutinous rice balls in his spoon were almost cool enough to be eaten.

Take a bite of half a glutinous rice ball, and the aroma of glutinous rice and black sesame spreads in your mouth at the same time, with just the right sweetness.

After Li Heng finished the remaining five dumplings in the bowl, Nangong Ya, Lin Shiqi and others came late with their bowls.

Fortunately, everyone was satisfied with the taste of the dumplings, and the short wait was worth it.

After dinner, Jiang Mei put down her bowl, wiped her mouth and prepared to leave as usual, but was stopped by Li Heng, who had been waiting for a long time.

"Wait a minute, Sister Jiang. I have something to ask you."

After stopping Jiang Mei, Li Heng wanted to get straight to the point.

"Are you looking for something, sister? Are you dissatisfied with me for not spending enough time with you recently?"

"I was negligent! Come on! Come to your sister, I want to give you a big hug to make up for the care you received from your sister."

After Jiang Mei finished speaking, she opened her arms and enthusiastically rushed towards Li Heng.

"No, Sister Jiang, you misunderstood. I want to discuss something serious with you. I'm not kidding!"

Li Heng knew that Jiang Mei would do this, so he had already prepared for it.

He just stretched out his hand, picked up Xiao Chi who was standing next to him, and stuffed him into Jiang Mei's arms.

Xiao Chi, who was confused, suddenly felt dizzy, and then bumped into two soft things.

"Duang~Duang~"

Then everything went black before my eyes and my head bounced back.

By the time she realized what was happening, she was already in Jiang Mei's arms.

"Ah!!! Brother Li Heng, I'm not done with you!"

Xiao Chi turned around and roared at Li Heng with bared fangs and claws.

He wanted to break free from Jiang Mei's embrace, but she held him tightly and he could only stand there helplessly and furiously.

"Oh? What's the matter?"

While Jiang Mei was "ravaging" Xiao Chi in her arms, she looked at Li Heng opposite her and asked him curiously.

"It's like this. I was free today and looked at the date. I found that my birthday is in three days."

"Ah! Sister Jiang, please let me go! I want to duel with Brother Li Heng!"

Xiao Chi, who was held in Jiang Mei's arms, had no time to listen to what the two were talking about. She just wanted to get out of Jiang Mei's arms as soon as possible.

"Hehehe~ So that's how it is!"

Jiang Mei smiled. She thought Li Heng was in some trouble, but it turned out that she was overthinking.

Li Heng and Jiang Mei were chatting animatedly, but poor Xiao Chi, who was sandwiched between them, was treated as an invisible person and no one listened to her at all.
