1-2 c water
1 c bean paste stuffing
1 c sesame powder

0.5 c lard

0.25t sweet osmanthus paste (sweet olive paste)
1 egg
1 T brown sugar

(2) Heat 0.5 c lard in wok then add 1 c of brown sugar and 2 c of water. Bring to a slow boil. Wait until the sugar is melted then add the bean paste. Using a higher flame, stir constantly until the water evaporates. This is to be used for stuffing. Form small balls for later use.
B. Sesame stuffing.
