The mouse shell kuih is called water pigeon turtle according to my hometown's dialect. In my hometown, it is a snack made every year during the Qingming Festival. My aunt will pick wild mouse shell cotton before Qingming every year, and then send the finished mouse shell kuih to My family also has my aunt’s blessing to be able to eat this delicious! Mouse shell kuih is usually made with sesame peanut filling, red bean paste and green bean paste, or glutinous rice with salty filling! When I’m not in my hometown, I choose to buy mouse shell cotton online. I found this snack is also available in some places outside, but the mouse shell cotton is a bit different. Most of the mouse shell cotton is yellow flowers, while white flowers are generally used in Chaoshan area!
