Black rice and red dates glutinous rice cake

Overview

The black color enters the kidneys. After the black rice matures, it becomes soft and glutinous with a kind of chewy texture. It tastes very good. I used black rice from Bama, Guangxi. The grains of black rice are crystal clear and the rice has a strong aroma. The black rice glutinous rice cake with red dates is even more fragrant with dates and rice. When dipped in white sugar, the texture and taste are great.
