【Jiangsu】Candy (rice sticks)

Overview

Shake and shake, until I reach Grandma's Bridge, my grandma praises me for being a good baby, a bag of candy, a bag of fruit... I don't know why, I always think of the candy canes in this nursery rhyme as being the same as glutinous rice sticks. In our hometown, we call it white sugar candy. We will definitely prepare this for every new year, wedding... these happy events. When relatives come, they brew it with boiling water and use it to entertain guests. Together with Tangyuan tea (boiled glutinous rice balls), they are two traditional desserts for entertaining guests. Now it has been simplified, just make a tea bag. The atmosphere of the New Year is gradually fading... Although I don't like these sweets, I also like to live a simple and casual life. But I want to approach and treasure all traditional food cultures with respect...
