Babaofan (Rice pudding with eight-delicious ingredients) is a traditional snack of the Han nationality, but now it does not distinguish between regions and nationalities. The ingredients used for it have gradually simplified from the initial eight requirements, and the formulas in different regions are similar. Basically, it involves steaming glutinous rice, mixing it with sugar, oil, osmanthus flowers, pouring it into a utensil containing red dates, Job's tears, lotus seeds, longan, and other fruit ingredients, steaming it, and then pouring it with sugar sauce to make it.
