Chinese Fermented Rice Cake

Chinese Fermented Rice Cake by Sarah Xiong

This recipe can be halved. Use my fermented rice wine recipe mixed with equal parts rice flour as the starter: http://www.cookooree.com/u/sarah-kurniawan/recipes/fermented-rice-wine Once you make this recipe, don't wash the container. Just add more ingredients. The residual batter should have enough starter to repeat the process.
