The name "tea towel twist" is a gentle wind. Tea towel refers to the linen cloth that wipes the edge of the tea bowl in the tea ceremony, but in Japanese cuisine, it generally refers to the food wrapped in tea towel. Purple potato tea towel is an essential and most famous dessert in Japanese tea ceremony. It is made by packaging. Soft ingredients are used as raw materials, wrapped in linen, twisted into a ball, and the surface is covered with strips of cloth or plastic wrap, which is simple, clumsy and lovely.

Purple potato bean paste tea towel twisted.

-The raw materials needed-

1 purple potato, red beans, sugar and mint leaves (for decoration).

Production steps:

1. Red beans are soaked in clear water and crushed in a pressure cooker. You can use a rice cooker or an ordinary pot, but it will take a little longer.

2. Take out the red beans, add the right amount of sugar, stir well, and you can make stuffing.

3. Because I want to cook it for my children at home, I will beat the honey beans into bean paste and fry them in a non-stick pan until they are semi-solid. This is the exquisite red bean paste. You can also buy ready-made bean paste directly, which is also possible.

4. Then knead the red bean paste into a small ball of about18g for later use.

5. Peel the purple potato, cut it into small pieces, boil water in the pot, and steam the purple potato. I steam in an electric cooker, and you can steam in your own ordinary cooker at will.

6. Then take out the purple potato and mash it, and choose to add honey or condensed milk according to your own taste. The purple potato I bought is very sweet, so I didn't put any more soup sugar. Please help yourself.

7. Take out about 30 grams of purple potato, knead it round, flatten it, put it on the plastic wrap, then put the bean paste balls we just rubbed in the middle of the purple potato, wrap them with plastic wrap, and tie them tightly at the mouth.

8. After the plastic wrap is opened, the tea towel is wrapped. The method is simple. Finally, we can decorate it with mint leaves. It looks a bit like a radish and a bit like a strawberry. It's cute, and it makes people feel a little unbearable. It looks appetizing, especially after the children at home watch it, they are willing to eat it after holding it for a long time.

Tips:

1, or you can choose to put different fillings according to your own taste. I put bean paste, you can also put yam, jujube paste and so on.

2. Finally, everyone can decorate it to make the whole dessert look more lovely and have some value.

If you want to lose weight and eat this, I suggest you don't put so many sweet ingredients. The simpler the better.
