Black rice, also known as Ami rice and green rice essence. In most areas, it falls on the eighth day of the fourth lunar month. Many families use black rice leaves to cook black rice, which has become a custom. Some also do it during the Beginning of Summer or Qingming Festival. But people here are always eager to eat black rice before the eighth day of April. Black rice is oily and fragrant. It is made by soaking glutinous rice in black leaves for several hours and then cooking it. Eating black rice can dispel wind and detoxify. The meatballs wrapped with salted egg yolk are rolled in glutinous rice soaked in black rice juice, steamed for 10 minutes, and the fragrant black rice balls are ready!
