Yangshuo Glutinous Rice Cake

Yangshuo Glutinous Rice Cake

　　Yangshuo glutinous rice cake is crafted with meticulous skill. Premium sticky rice is steamed until thoroughly cooked, then pounded vigorously until it becomes a uniform, cotton-like mass. The resulting sticky rice paste is then shaped into round balls and steamed in a bamboo steamer to create the final product. Water glutinous rice cakes are often filled with sweet fillings such as red bean paste, lotus seed paste, or sesame osmanthus sugar. They have a delicate, tender texture that is smooth and resilient,

　　with a pure, glossy white appearance,

　　and when served fresh and piping hot,

　　coated with a sprinkle of white sugar or roasted soybean flour, they become even more delicious in both color and flavor, offering a silky-smooth and sweet taste. It is one of the famous local snacks in Yangshuo.
