Zenggao is a local snack in Lingbao. According to legend, it was introduced from Shaanxi hundreds of years ago. The steamer has small holes at the bottom, so steamer cake is also called Jin cake. The quality is best when steamed in a pottery steamer. The raw materials of steamer cake are glutinous rice (traditionally Wuxi glutinous rice) and jujubes (Lingbao Maotou date is the best). The ratio is 10 kilograms of glutinous rice and 3 kilograms of jujubes per pot. Soaking the rice, filling the steamer, adding water and fire skills, etc. , all have strict requirements. The steamer cake is of good shape and color, moderately soft and hard, sweet and sticky, and has a mellow taste. It is really a good breakfast item in winter and spring
