What is the embarrassment that Chaoshan people often say?

Simply put, in Chaoshan, food made of flour, rice flour and sweet potato starch can be called "pot". Usually, the pot we see is made of sticky rice flour, wrapped with stuffing, pressed with a mold and steamed in a steamer.

At first it was used as a sacrifice, and later it evolved into a local food. Chaoshan cuisine has many kinds, different shapes and colors, sweet and salty tastes, and even different meanings and connotations, such as red peach cake, which means good luck, and rat song cake, which means health and safety. When food becomes a culture, there is a sense of heaviness and precipitation.
