Rice Cake with Fermented Flavor
Rice is ground into a paste, mixed with an appropriate amount of alkaline water, then scalded with boiling water. The mixture is poured into small bowls and steamed until cooked. The edges of the cake puff up while the center forms a shallow depression. It is typically served with sweet soy sauce (red flavor), hence the name "Rice Cake with Fermented Flavor." It can also be sliced and pan-fried to bring out a savory taste, or cut into pieces and stir-fried with scallions, garlic, minced meat, and pepper for a delicious, chewy, and smooth texture, making it very popular among domestic and international visitors.
