Beating cakes is made by cooking glutinous rice and beating it. When eating, cut it into pieces and dip it in bean flour, sugar or honey. It tastes strong and delicious. Soak the rice in water for 3-4 hours, then take it out, sprinkle a little salt water, steam it in a pot, put the steamed rice in a wooden or stone trough, and beat it repeatedly with a mallet. Until the rice grains are broken. Then use mashed cooked adzuki beans or fried soybean noodles as seasoning. Cut the cake into small pieces and mix with seasoning to eat. When beating, two people stand face to face at the edge of the trough, beating each other alternately and turning the cake dough to beat it evenly. The two men increased their feelings through labor, and a cake with delicate fragrance and palatability was made.
