Mugwort Glutinous Rice Cake

Mugwort glutinous rice cake is a traditional snack in Guangxi, which is usually eaten on Qingming Festival. Every spring, mugwort is fresh and tender, with green leaves circling up. At this time, people will pick some mugwort leaves. They extract juice from the leaves, mix the juice with glutinous rice, and make them a green flour dough. A fresh mugwort glutinous rice cake is green as jade, sending out steam slowly. The surface of the cake is smooth and soft, inside which are all kinds of fillings, such as sesame, peanut, red bean, etc. When you have a bit of the cake, the fragrance of mugwort leaves lingers in your tongue, making you hard to forget.
