Colorful mochi

Overview

Hemp food is a kind of pasta and a traditional snack in the northwest region. In the north, it is called Ma Shi, but here we call it Mao Er. Today, I squeezed the spinach and carrots left in the refrigerator into juice and kneaded them into dough of different colors to make this colorful mochi that is more attractive. Doesn’t it look very beautiful?
