Follow these steps to make Ciba.

How to make it?

1. Process high grade glutinous rice, preferably red glutinous rice with thin shells, into glutinous rice flour.

2. Soak the glutinous rice in water thoroughly and then steam it in a wooden pot.

3. Grind the glutinous rice with a pestle and mortar, which gives the name "pounded Ciba".

4. After several rounds of hard pounding, divide the rice dough into dozens of egg-sized rice balls or cakes.

5. Put fried rice, peanuts, sesame seeds, brown sugar and other seasonings on the balls or cakes to produce a sweet, delicious taste and smooth texture.
