Hetian Ciba is made by hand, from glutinous rice planting to Ciba making, all by hand, without machines. "On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, I will give a speech." Ciba is a traditional custom in southern China, especially during the Chinese New Year, every household will make Ciba. However, the Longtan area in Xupu County is different from other places.

In Longtan, Ciba is as delicate as silk, as white as snow, as soft as cotton, and sweet and delicious. It was once a tribute in ancient times. Whether frying or cooking, white silk glutinous rice cakes are always sweet and soft. Every time I pass by Longtan and Hotan, I will take a box of Ciba home to eat. Sometimes if you are lazy and don't want to cook, you will eat one, which will make you full and last for a long time.

In Hotan, everyone likes to eat baked rice cakes with fermented bean curd. Sufu is salty and fragrant with soft glutinous sweet rice cakes, or cut into small pieces and cooked with sweet wine and brown sugar. The softened rice cake becomes softer, fragrant and sweet, just like being ready to eat.
