What is man suang?

Mansuang is a type of traditional Chinese dessert that originated from the Hakka people in southern China. It is commonly made during festivals and special occasions.

The main ingredients used to make mansuang include glutinous rice flour, sugar, and water, which are mixed together to form a dough. The dough is then shaped into small balls or discs, which can be steamed or boiled until they are cooked.

Once cooked, mansuang can be dipped in a sweet syrup or coated in toasted sesame seeds for added flavor. It has a chewy and sticky texture, similar to mochi, and is often enjoyed as a sweet treat or snack.

Mansuang is also believed to bring good luck and prosperity, making it a popular dessert choice during Chinese New Year and other celebratory events. It is commonly enjoyed in Taiwan, where it is known as "mochi," and in other parts of Asia with Hakka populations.
