過年的正月十五要吃湯圓，等不及的我早早就把湯圓煮好吃光了，在這兒跟大家分享這碗美味的國寶級甜湯!! 還好早早吃完了，昨天去華人超市，居然買不到桂冠的湯圓了，全賣完了，真是掃興!  等下再去別家找找!! 我最喜歡的口味，是桂冠的花生湯圓，很多人都比較喜歡吃芝麻的，我最喜歡花生的!!!

份量: 6 人份

A材料

蓮子，乾             ½ 杯

綠豆，乾             ¼ 杯

紅豆，乾             ¼ 杯

大紅豆，乾         ¼ 杯

薏仁，乾             2 大匙    

紅棗，乾             6 顆

B材料

薑片                     5 片

冰糖                        適量

桂冠湯圓             2 包 (20 顆)

作法

1. 將所有A材料泡水2-3個小時，撈出瀝乾後，加入薑片放入一大鍋中煮，水要夠蓋過乾料，再倒約4-6 杯水下去，用大火煮到沸騰後，轉小火慢慢熬，煮約25-35分鐘，到所有的材料都入口及溶，再加入足夠的冰糖調味。

2. 火不要太大，不然豆子會太爛，糊掉了!

3. 另起一湯鍋加水煮沸，將湯圓放入鍋中煮至浮到水面上，再煮1-2分鐘。

4. 將湯圓盛入一湯碗中，再舀一兩杓熱熱的八寶甜湯到碗中，滋味無窮啊!!
