Zenggao uses sticky rice, (traditionally produced in
Wuxi city,
Jiangsu province) and Chinese dates as raw materials, with a proportion of sticky rice of
10 kg and Chinese dates of
3
kg each time. Approaches of making Zenggao are quite demanding in
skills. Looking pleasing in both form and color with a proper hardness
and softness, it is tender, sweet and sticky, and is a good breakfast in
winter and spring.
