[@acha0790]

Thank you so much for your step by step video!

[@niamnpisxy00j]

Thank you for the clear, bilingual, step-by-step instructions! It is very much appreciated 😊🙏💕

[@meeliving1345]

Glad speaking bilingual is helpful to you. Thanks for watching.

Oil prevents fermentation. How could your rice ferment when you use the oil spray??? All brewing instructions I’ve ever seen stress about cleaning everything surface, especially of oil.

[@pahouamoua4675]

What are the measurements for the purple rice? Like how cup of the white sticky rice and and how many cup of the he black rice together

[@suabyalei8421]

Hi sister , i make exactly your recipe but after i eat 5 days later taste so stronger sweet and kind of bitter too. So do you know why its like that.

[@meeliving1345]

Hello, the longer you keep it refrigerated, the sweet it will get. I'm not sure about the bitterness? Mine was never bitter.

[@mayseeyang5953]

I love how you explain the process of making this dish. I always wonder why it was so sweet. Now i realize its natural sweetness from the rice itself.. yikes no wonder rice is no good for us.

[@meeliving1345]

Hi Maisee, yes, the sweet is natural from the rice. That is why as we get older, we need to reduce our rice portions. Thanks for watching.

[@houavue620]

Hi sister Mee! I love watching you. Thank you for the recipe!. I have a question for you? I want to make this rice for New Year, If i making at this time of the year, How long should i let it set before is ready to eat?

[@meeliving1345]

Hi Houa, leave it to fermented for a day longer and taste to see if the flavor is good or leave it for another day longer since it's winter season.

[@yanjijay6752]

Just wondering can you use American yeast btw need to get some

[@yiaxiong5258]

Hi Mee, did you mix white and purple rice together and soak for the night? I usually soak them separately for the night, pre-cook my purple rice prior to mixing with the white rice and then steam.

[@meeliving1345]

Hi Yia, I soak the purple rice with white rice overnight to get the purple color. Otherwise, the purple color does not turn out as pretty.

[@Thaiv728]

Thank you

[@kellyxiong8739]

My turned moldy and got bitter. I followed your instructions. What went wrong?

[@TeamLevi666]

Did you leave the rice soaked longer than you should? Soaked rice will mold all on its own. Was your container air tight?

[@bv2067]

Where did you get the steamer from? What size is it?

[@meeliving1345]

Hi BV, I got my steamer from Hmongtown market in St Paul. The size of the steamer is 12 inch diameter.

[@kayingmoua1212]

I just made a batch last night at 10 pm. Waiting til tomorrow to taste it (48 hours).

[@meeliving1345]

Great! Let me know it turned out for you.

[@kayingmoua1212]

I looked at the rice wine last night... there's no liquid yet. Are there suppose to be some already? I do see some condensation going, but doesn't seem like there will be enough. Maybe its not warm enough & might have to wait longer for it to ferment. I did use 3 cups of water as you stated in the video before adding the crushed powdered yeast. The consistency after mixed does look like yours in the video too. I checked this morning again... still condensation, not much change. Hopefully by tonight it'll look like yours in the video. 🤞 it'll be 48 hours by then.

[@meeliving1345]

@@kayingmoua1212 Has it been 48 hours and have you open it yet? Following my recipe here, it should yield lots of juice just like mine here. When you open it, stir the rice wine together and you will see lots of juice from the bottom. Make sure to refrigerate it after you open. Serve chilled is the best.

[@kayingmoua1212]

Updated on the batch I made last week... I finally saw some liquid the other night. Last night had little more, but looks cloudy, not clear like yours in the video. Im not sure if its safe to taste because it has been about a week now. You stated the fermentation should be less then 3 days even during the winter. The container has been sitting on my counter in yhe kitchen since I made it & followed your exact directions/measurements of rice, water & 2 yeast balls crushed to powder, also tightly closed container too. What did I do wrong?

[@meeliving1345]

@@kayingmoua1212 Why is it cloudy? Not sure what happened there? dont' eat if it's cloudy. Try again next time.

[@karzanfaridon6100]

Hi, can I ask you please for how long we can keep it ?& what to do to make alcohol in it? Thank you very much.

[@kiavue3783]

Oh oh I very need to know

[@siavang6577]

Thanks sister! you have the best video of all videos. Thanks again.

[@kayingmoua1212]

What is the purpose of covering the tightly closed container w/ a cloth?

[@meeliving1345]

You don't have to cover the container with a cloth. That is just my typical practice. Not covering with cloth does not affect its fermentation process.

[@LoloLolo-ff9hk]

Hi Mee, i tried your recipe but my came out moldy after 12hours, where did i go wrong?

[@KirstenHassler]

What is the brand for the purple rice?
