glutinous rice chicken
Glutinous rice chicken is a kind of Cantonese dim sum. It is said that glutinous rice chicken originated from the night market in Guangzhou before liberation. It was originally steamed under a bowl, but later it was sold by hawkers for convenience, and was wrapped in lotus leaves. Ancient glutinous rice chicken was refined with glutinous rice, scallops, dried shrimp grains, or boneless chicken wings as fillings. Traditional glutinous rice chicken has a large portion, three to four meters long. Eating one glutinous rice chicken is almost half a meal. Therefore, Guangdong restaurants since the 1980s have launched "guinea fowl" with the same materials and half the size, which is very popular among customers.
Another snack similar to glutinous rice chicken is lotus leaf rice. The two are similar in appearance, but lotus leaf rice is made of sticky rice, while glutinous rice chicken is made of glutinous rice.
