Rinse the 300 g glutinous rice thoroughly and soak it in clean water for at least 2 hours.

After soaking, drain the rice and transfer it to a pot filled with plenty of cold water.

Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring often to prevent sticking.

Once boiling, continue to cook for 4–5 minutes until the rice grains appear plump, soft, and separate.

Drain the rice using a strainer and set aside.

Remove the pits from the 8 red dates.

Cut each date in half. Layer them one on top of another, then roll them up tightly into a spiral shape.

Wrap the roll tightly in plastic wrap and secure it. Slice the roll in half to create two beautiful "red date flowers."(You can see the process in the video).

Prepare two bowls (one large, one small). Place the cut side of the red date flowers face down at the bottom of each bowl.

Scatter 30 g raisins and 20 g goji berries around the flowers to decorate the base.

Add a layer of the cooked glutinous rice into the bowl, pressing it down firmly but gently to remove air pockets.

Sprinkle a layer of brown sugar evenly over the rice.

Continue layering — rice, brown sugar, rice, brown sugar — until the bowl is filled, finishing with a layer of brown sugar on top.

Pour water into the bowl.

Place the bowl into a steamer. Cover and steam over high heat for 30 minutes.

After steaming, let it sit for 2–3 minutes.

Use a spoon to gently run around the inside edge of the bowl to loosen the glutinous rice.

Place a serving plate over the bowl, and carefully invert the bowl to release the glutinous rice onto the plate.

Serve warm and enjoy the soft, sweet, and fragrant treat!
