Glass Rice

Glass Rice

　　Glass Rice is produced in the Zhenyuan mountainous area, commonly known as "Snowflake Valley." The grains are round, plump, crystal-clear, and shiny—hence the name "Glass Rice." Steamed, it yields soft, fragrant rice that leaves you wanting more. The resulting rice crackers are soft and translucent, and the liquor made from it is sweet and aromatic, possessing a fragrance not found in ordinary glutinous rice. It is an excellent choice for entertaining guests or giving as a gift to family and friends. (Simao)
