Notes:

The Ninth Festival of the Lunar New Year in September is also known as the "Old Man's Day". People in the Jiangnan area like to send an anvil to the elders, which is not soft and sticky, to show filial piety. Because Jiangnan Chongyang cake is different from the flower cake and cake in the north, it is based on glutinous rice flour, so it is more refreshing to eat, not sticky, and more suitable for the elderly with bad mouth.

Ingredients:

• Glutinous rice flour 170g
• Glutinous rice flour 130g
• 150 grams of water
• Cotton white sugar 45 grams
• a little oil
• Bean paste 150g
• a little dried fruit

Steps:

1. 

   Mix the glutinous rice flour, glutinous rice flour, water, sugar and oil together, then fully pour into loose powder.

2. 

   Allow to stand for a while to allow the powder to fully absorb moisture.

3. 

   The powder was sieved twice into a fine, light powder.

4. 

   Take a round mold, put on the gauze, pour half of the powder into the flat, and then put it into the steamer and steam for 5 minutes.

5. 

   Remove the mold, spread the bean paste, smooth it, then pour the other half of the powder and smooth it.

6. Evenly put the dried fruit on the surface of the smoothed powder.

7. Then steam it for about 30 minutes.

Tips:
