How can rice cakes be preserved without deterioration?

Rice cakes can be preserved by fresh-keeping methods and will not go bad.

Preservation method is just like vegetable preservation. Wrapping a layer of plastic wrap on the ingredients can ensure the freshness of the ingredients for a long time, and the same is true for rice cakes. Dry the rice cake to ensure that there is no moisture on the surface, and touch it with your hands so that the surface of the rice cake does not stick to your hands. Sealed with plastic wrap and stored in the fresh-keeping room of the refrigerator at 4 degrees.

At low temperature, rice cakes can be stored for about a week to slow down the reproduction and growth of microorganisms. When you want to eat, take out a part and eat it now, and seal the rest with plastic wrap. Remember to make sure it's dry inside. So it is not easy to store too many rice cakes and prevent them from going bad after eating for a while. It is recommended that the stored rice cakes be eaten within one week.

The origin of rice cakes

At that time, Wu Zixu urged the prince of Wu to destroy Yue. Unfortunately, the prince of Wu did not listen to Wu Zixu's advice and ordered Wu Zixu to build a magnificent capital for his enjoyment. Later, the king of Wu listened to rumors and sentenced the general to death. Before his execution, Wu Zixu told his cronies that if the capital was trapped by the Vietnamese army one day, he could dig food under the city wall.

Everyone thought it was a joke until one day, the capital was really trapped by the Vietnamese army, and all the ammunition and food were used up. People remembered Wu Zixu's words and dug a corner of the city wall. As a result, they found that city bricks were actually made of rice, which saved the whole city from famine. Later, in memory of Wu Zixu, people began to make rice cakes like city bricks.
