Basic introduction of Sandu moci

Sandu moci is a traditional snack in Sandu and even Jiande. During festivals and holidays, every household in the Three Capitals will pound sesame cakes. And the preparation work also starts from the day before. Sandu mochi is different from the mochi in Meicheng and Shouchang areas. The biggest difference is that there is filling in the skin. There are usually two types of fillings: one is red beans with sugar; Also, sesame with sugar

It was early spring, and the stream turned red and flowed into the Fuchun River. People felt cold when they saw it, and the people of the three cities were grateful for Baoheng's love for the people. They buried the bodies of Baoheng and the deceased soldiers, and knelt down in front of the Taixi River to worship. The next day, on the fifteenth day of the second lunar month, the people of Sandu got up early to chop knives and cakes, intending to throw them into the river for worship. However, upon closer thought, I realized it was inappropriate because if Bai placed sugar sesame seeds outside the sesame cake and threw them into water, they would melt away. So, sesame and white sugar were mixed with filling, wrapped in mochi, and thrown into Taixi, Baoheng, and the fallen soldiers to enjoy the sweet and delicious mochi. Coincidentally, this year was a good year for the local weather, and the people were even more devout. They donated funds to build a temple on the northeast bank of the Taixi River, which became the custom of temple fairs in the Three Capitals in February. The custom of throwing rice cakes into the river was also changed with the construction of the Yanwang Temple, and became a sacrificial offering in the temple, enshrined on the incense altar in the Yanwang Temple

The temple fair in the second half of February in Sandu is a world of mochi, with constant cries of sales and praise
