Rice bowl cake

Rice bowl cake

Introduction:

"Bowl cake" is a special food in Southern Fujian. It is a kind of food made by steaming fermented sweet rice paste into a special bowl. It is named after its bowl shape. It has neither the meat flavor of steamed buns nor the crispness of fried dough sticks. It has only a simple appearance and a simple and honest "smile", as well as the fragrance of rice and the sweetness. Bowl cake is not only a kind of food for worship, but also a necessary pastry for Chinese new year, which occupies a deep place in the hearts of Minnan people. With the variety of breads, cakes, desserts and so on becoming more and more abundant, gradually, no longer like before, every family can make cakes, even the general vegetable market may not be able to buy. After asking my grandmother several times, I only got a general understanding of the earliest method. The original bowl cakes need to be soaked in rice and polished, and they are all manual, so the production process is cumbersome. Because there is no exact method to refer to, and neither stone mill nor small bowl specially used for steaming cakes can be found, so I have used a simple method to practice many times, but it is fluffy and soft. In fact, if I meet people who sell cakes, I usually buy a few. If I am lucky enough to meet an old man who looks more amiable, I also ask about them. So recently, I asked about a seemingly more reliable method, which is still in the process of trying. If it is better, I will continue to share it. "
