Ganzhou Matong, also called "mazao," has a history of nearly a hundred years. Its main ingredients are premium glutinous rice, white sugar, sesame seeds, tea oil, and maltose. The production process includes several steps: milling, molding, drying, deep-frying, sugar boiling, sesame coating, inspection, and packaging.
High-quality Matong expands when deep-fried, resulting in a plump body with a paper-thin skin and a spongy, melon-like interior with white threads inside. When eaten, it melts in the mouth without any residue, offering a crispy, fragrant, and delicious taste. It is a popular treat during the Spring Festival and also makes a great gift for family and friends. This product won the first prize in Jiangxi Province’s rice-based products competition in 1984.
