Shanghai leisha sweet glutinous dumplings

Shanghai mashed glutinous rice balls Shanghai mashed glutinous rice balls have a history of more than 70 years. In the old days, a earthen earthen sand basin with shuttle-shaped lines on the inner wall was used first, and then a pomegranate wood with hard texture was used as a "mashing stick" to grind the pulp. Stir-fried dried beans, such as peanuts, sesame seeds or soybeans, were put into the sand basin to dry grind the "fragrant sand" into powder. Finally, the cooked dumplings rolled around in the "fragrant sand", so the sticky glutinous rice balls were covered with the fragrant sand, hence the name "rolling sand dumplings". Some restaurants regard it as a ready-to-eat snack, and what they want to eat is the fresh feeling that a bite of stuffing gushes out like quicksand.
