From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
Niangao (Chinese: 粘糕 or 年糕; pinyin: niángāo), or Chinese new year's cake, is a traditional Chinese snack, associated especially with Chinese new year. It is similar to a sweet, stretchy, and sticky pudding. It is made with sticky rice powder, brown sugar and flavored with rosewater or azuki beans. The batter is steamed until it solidifies and served in thick slices.
