Every year at home, the noodles are made by my mother herself. Generally, there are five steps of selecting glutinous rice, soaking glutinous rice, grinding rice milk, pressing rice milk, and drying the dried rice milk into slices. The rice milk is usually on the terrace. Expose it all day, sun during the day, and dew at night. After drying for a week through the cycle of day and night, high temperature and low temperature, put the dried glutinous rice noodles in a cloth bag for storage and take them as you eat.
