SOURCING
Not too much going on for this one, but you will need long grain glutinous rice (长糯米):
Amazon: www.amazon.com/Thai-Sticky-Ri...
Weee: www.sayweee.com/en/product/Ri...
For the syrup, the optional dried rose:
www.amazon.com/TIAN-HU-SHAN-C...
www.sayweee.com/en/product/Bi...\
For the mango bingjiang, choose a very ripe mango.
PREPARING THE STICKY RICE
If your rice cooker has a sticky rice function, feel free to use that. Alternatively, soak the rice for a half hour, then cook in the rice cooker together with ~10% more water than your rice cooker calls for.
Note that this is not a general technique for cooking sticky rice - because we're blending this all up, the rice texture simply doesn't matter as much as it would for, say, Lo Mai Gai.
In the video, we cooked 100g of sticky rice - good for about three bingjiang. Feel free to scale up according to the number of bingjiang that you're making.
TO MAKE THE SYRUP:
* Jaggery, slab sugar (片糖), or dark brown sugar, 120g
* Water, 240g
* Dried rose buds (玫瑰花茶), ~5
Melt the sugar into the water, and cook it down over a medium flame, ~10 minutes. Add the optional rose buds, and cook that down for ~5 minutes more, until syrupy.
CUCUMBER AND MILK BINGJIANG
Per Bingjiang:
* COOKED sticky rice, 60g. Remember that this is the quantity of cooked rice. So like... once your rice is done cooking, break out the scale and portion out this 60g per shake.
* Milk, 60g
* Milk powder (奶粉), 1 tbsp
* Cucumber, 60g. Peeled and chopped.
* Ice, 240g
* Sugar, 1.5 tbsp
ฺBlend together all the ingredients except the sticky rice, ~1 minute. Add the sticky rice, blend for ~30 seconds more. For each shake, top with
* Toasted (or roasted) peanuts, chopped, ~1/2 tbsp
* Toasted sesame seeds, ~1/2 tbsp
* Syrup from above, ~1-2 tsp
MANGO BINGJIANG
* COOKED sticky rice, 60g. Remember that this is the quantity of cooked rice. So like... once your rice is done cooking, break out the scale and portion out this 60g per shake.
* Mango, 120g. Chopped.
* Ice, 240g
* Sugar, 1.5 tbsp
ฺBlend together all the ingredients except the sticky rice, ~1 minute. Add the sticky rice, blend for ~30 seconds more. For each shake, top with
* Toasted (or roasted) peanuts, chopped, ~1/2 tbsp
* Toasted sesame seeds, ~1/2 tbsp
You can also use the syrup from above if you like, though we prefer the mango version with just nuts. For an inauthentic twist (hey, it's only a 25 year old dish anyway), you could also try drizzling over a bit of coconut cream as well.

Hey guys, a few notes: 1. Just a reminder again that the 60g of rice per shake is COOKED rice. So like... cook up 100g worth of long grain glutinous rice, which should be roughly 180-200g after cooked, then portion it out to that 60 gram per shake. Hope that's not overly confusing! 2. I know that I was playing pretty fast and loose with the word, "Horchata", as drinks that carry the name can obviously be found all around the Hispanophone world. Atlas Obscura has a pretty interesting piece on the history of Horchatas: www.atlasobscura.com/articles/history-of-horchata . Being American, my exposure to Horchata was always the Mexican Horchata de Arroz, so that was where I was coming from regarding the introduction. In hindsight, I probably should've had a note in there acknowledging the existence of other sorts of Horchata - my bad. 3. Someone over on the Patreon was asking whether that original version of Bingjiang actually used milk or not. The answer is... probably we think? Bingjiang is one of those things with a super super murky origin story - there's very little out there that's solid. Basically, we know that it came out (1) in the mid 90s and (2) it was from Anshun, but what that very first version looked like is probably anyone's guess. 4. Once during testing, when we were lazy, we just grabbed a Bangkok street mango sticky rice and blended that with the requisite ice - also quite tasty. I definitely think that a bit of coconut milk might be a nice addition to the mango bingjiang. 5. Oh! Definitely do remember to toast your peanuts (if they're not roasted already) and sesame seeds (if you bought yours untoasted) - we decided to not show that in the video. That said, I was curious if y'all would prefer (1) we show smaller steps like this in the video (2) if you would prefer a supplementary video being linked as a card or (3) if we were correct in our assumption that you didn't really need to see the nut toasting process. So we did a little poll over on the community page - the results were 20%, 45%, and 35% respectively... so all of you were super unhelpfully split in your opinions haha. 6. I think in the future we may end up going with the plurality there and make little supplementary videos. They might be public, might be unlisted, I dunno. I'm sensitive to the frustration some people have when they want to cook something from a cookbook or a blog, and they "need to jump between like five recipes in order to cook one single dish". I dunno what's the best solution there - it feels like all the options have their downsides. Maybe I'll ask /r/cooking sometime too. 7. Regarding the ladle used when blending, remember to use a ladle that's much bigger than the blade of your blender, so that it can't go down all the way to the bottom and touch the blade. We only need something to help press the ice down as it gets quite thick. Anyway, that's all for now. I'll edit some more in in a bit if I think of anything.

Chilled in the refrigerator and drunk with no sweetener or milk or anything. I drink about 700cc every day! No sweetened iced tea for me. I do believe that in South Korea, barley tea is also drunk warm/hot in the winter.

While there probably is no relationship between horchata and bingjiang, there is a link between China and Mexico: the Philippines. During the Colonial Era, there was a lot of exchange between these islands and Mexico, as they were both Spanish colonies. And, while rice is common in Spanish cuisine, horchata in Europe is made from tiger nuts rather than rice. This is not meant to contradict anything you said in the video, especially since bingjiang is a recent innovation.

Another fun fact is that during a certain era of Chinese history (I’m not sure of the exact years), the silver peso was a common denomination in circulation. As I understand it, the Chinese ruling class at the time imported silver from Mexican and South American mines.

Horchata was popularized in Valencia (Spain) and it's made from tiger nuts (chufa), but the real origin is from north africa. When it was sent to america by the spanish, because there wasn't tiger nuts, or at least was not that common, they started to do horchata with almonds and rice. Spaniards nowadays are not usually aware of this and when they find horchata made with something different than tiger nuts they laugh at it and say that that beverage is not horchata. So it's not that strange that someone saw it, or tried it, and made their own version.

I'm pretty sure it's because a lot of milk/cheese dishes aren't dietary staples - IIRC, many people that are 'lactose intolerant' can still consume up to 1-2 glasses of milk per day without issue. I'm guessing that there might be a severity bias among people in the west that're diagnosed with lactose intolerance? Like, theoretically 36% of the United States is lactose intolerant (and 72% of Italy!) but it sure doesn't *feel* like one out of every three people you meet can't eat dairy - I'd imagine that even in the west, a lot of people are out there that are running around without the enzyme lactase, but still consume dairy on the regular. Anecdotally, Steph enjoys dairy products quite a bit, but they make her feel 'full' quite fast. Like, if I make a really cheesy mac n' cheese, her portion is ends up being like... five large spoonfuls.

If you have access to, and can afford one, a Vitamix blender does an excellent job pulverizing pretty much anything.

have you ever thought of topping the mango bingjiang with coconut milk, thai style?

@bea3558 Жыл бұрын

how good would this be with lemon or lime? I love sour fruity snakes but I feel you'd need to compensate with more sugar. maybe you could substitute the milk/fruit with lemonade/limeade?

Hi! Is the rice cooker optional? I'm in Laos and we use the kind of sticky rice steamer basket for sticky rice, I've never tried doing some in the rice cooker and I am wondering if this will change the texture too much?

@ChineseCookingDemystified Жыл бұрын

Totally. In Guizhou it'd actually be steamed as well

i wonder if you can cook the sticky rice with coconut milk instead for the mango version, just go full mango sticky rice on that one

We did blend a mango sticky rice with ice straightup, they're good~

Curious if you know what difference it would make if you used a more standard rice like Jasmine, still cooked with more water to mimic that sticky rice texture. I don't have any sticky rice on hand (but plenty of regular eating rice) but I'm super down to try this!

So funny story, when I first tried to make horchata I used cooked rice and it turned into a thick rice smoothie. I think normal jasmine may be blended into a paste easier than sticky rice, so if you want to use jasmine, cut back on the blending time so that the grain keeps better. But sticky rice does have a better texture for sure.

Would short grain glutinous rice still work as a substitute?

In defense of banana smoothies, there are more calories in 100g of sticky rice than there are in 100g of ripe banana. Sticky rice may TASTE more "light" to you, but it's not.

So… American smoothies need a bunch of bananas and a bunch of sugar… but the syrup in the milk version and sugar in the mango version don’t count? I have never added straight sugar to any smoothie… very confused.

@@kimchiteagames That one I have seen before. hm, I wonder if greek cooking is similar since it can have some similarities. Older western European cooking used similar, like orange water and whatnot, a fair amount at one point in time, I think it stopped being as much a thing in around the 1700's about.

@@wilhelmseleorningcniht9410 I forget which video it was in, but Glen And Friends' Old Cookbook Show, he discusses flavorings & extracts in desserts before vanilla became commercially viable enough to be mass produced & affordable, and afterwards a lot of flavors in Western desserts are just kinda flattened out to vanilla.
