Heap peanut mixture in a line down the middle, leaving rice batter exposed in equal amounts on both sides. Lift sides of wrapping almost fully up and pour remaining batter on top, then complete wrapping to seal entirely so liquid will not penetrate.", "Allow to boil gently over medium-low heat in a large pot of water, partly covered, for 24 hours.
