Patty cake trivia
In the Hakka areas of Meizhou, Guangdong, Longyan, Fujian, and Sanming, Fujian, it is customary to make patty cake for every traditional festival or family celebration. The method of making mochi is to take the best glutinous grain, preferably red grain glutinous with thin shell and soft texture, and process it into white glutinous rice. The glutinous rice is soaked with water, put into a wooden steamer to steam the glutinous rice, put into a stone mortar, and pounded with a pestle and mortar. This is why the Hakka people call it "patty cake pounding". The mortar and pestle used for pounding the rice patties should be smooth, so that the grains of glutinous rice will not stick to the mortar and pestle. The rice is then pounded and pounded hard to make it into a jelly-like consistency, and then made into egg-sized patties. Dipped in powdered seasonings made from fried rice, peanuts, sesame seeds, and yellow sugar, it tastes soft and smooth, and is sweet and savory. There is a saying in the Hakka countryside: "On the October morning, the patties are cooked." The saying goes that on the first day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, every family makes steaming hot patties.
