Black sesame glutinous rice balls
When I was a child, there was a custom in my hometown. Every household in the village would cook glutinous rice during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then each household would send a strong man to get together, talk and laugh, and take turns beating Ma Ci. First pour the cooked glutinous rice into the stone mortar, then use a special Ding Zi shaped wooden stick to drop it in one fell swoop, and hammer it one after another until the glutinous rice completely turns into a soft glutinous cake shape without any grains of rice. During the beating process, in order to prevent the glutinous rice from sticking to the tool, one person must stand alone next to the stone mortar, occasionally dipping his hand in water, turning the glutinous rice in the stone mortar, and cooperate well with the person beating so that it will not be knocked. Hands. Put the beaten glutinous rice cake into a basin, squeeze it into small balls with your hands, and then dip it in sesame sugar and eat it. This is the earliest and real handmade machi.
But in normal times, when we want to eat it, our parents choose to use glutinous rice flour to make it easily because of the hard work and trouble of operation. Although it does not have the super soft glutinous rice paste that is hand-beaten, the taste is also the same. Very good.
