Hello!

Rat-shell pot is a kind of rice pot, which is made of rat-shell grass (Pulsatilla chinensis) as the skin, mashed and mixed rice flour, filled with sweet noodle sauce, wrapped in a round pot cover (model) and steamed. It has a certain health care function, because Pulsatilla is a stomach medicine, which has the functions of removing blood stasis and regulating stomach qi. Platycladus orientalis leaves also have the function of clearing spleen and strengthening stomach.

I hope it will help you and I hope it will be adopted.
