In Jiangxi, locals call "clear soup" "flat food", and "flat food" is also called "wonton" by northerners; "bubble cake" refers to the local special osmanthus glutinous rice cake. The so-called "clear soup cake" is to soak the osmanthus glutinous rice cake in the clear soup and eat it together. The clear soup is salty and fresh, while the cake is sweet, the soup is delicious, fragrant and sweet, and the two are eaten together, which has a different taste.
The earliest business of this kind of snack is the "Jinchun Pavilion" in Jingdezhen, the owner of this shop is called Li Jinchun, is a down-and-out reader, although the reading of tens of thousands of volumes, can poetry and painting, but it is not able to lift. When his parents fell, he had no money to ask a maid to cook for him, so he had to do it himself. Fortunately, he was intelligent by nature, and the rice noodle snacks he researched were constantly praised by neighbors and friends.
"Solo music is not as good as crowd music", Li Jinchun, who is also the boss and a guy, used his friend to borrow his money to open a small noodle restaurant at the dock in Jingdezhen. Because the noodles he cooked tasted so good, patrons were not only locals, but also more merchants who traveled to and from Jingdezhen from other places to do business. This time and so, the business gradually improved. According to legend, the Qianlong Emperor once visited Jingdezhen when he came down to Jiangnan, and tasted Li Jinchun's clear soup cake, frequently praised it, and personally inscribed the word "Golden Spring". This "Golden Spring" royal pen plaque, the store has been used until the establishment of new China, although the handwriting is peeling off, it is never replaced to show its honor.
Although it is wonton with osmanthus glutinous rice cake, the method is also quite exquisite. The broth is made from fine white flour handmade and noodles, made into a dough crust, and the filling is made with selected fresh pork and a variety of spices, wrapped in wontons and cooked. To make osmanthus glutinous rice cake, the dried glutinous rice flour is spread in a special frame, smoothed by hand, sprinkled with mixed sugar, cooked sesame seeds and sugar osmanthus flowers, and then smoothed, covered with a thin layer of glutinous rice flour, basketed and steamed.

The osmanthus glutinous rice cake in the clear soup cake is made of glutinous rice as the main ingredient, because the glutinous rice is extremely soft and sticky, the starch contained in it is amylopectin, which is not easy to digest, and those with weak spleen and stomach should not eat more, and the elderly, children or patients should also try to eat less.
