  1. It's a Chinese food, balls about an inch across, made from a thin layer
    of glutinous rice dough around a hard ball of crushed peanuts and sugar.
    They get laid in a little row of about five on a piece of oiled bamboo
    leaf and steamed, and are eaten hot while the dough is sticky and
    stretchy like mochi.

    Has anyone come across these, what they are called, and how they're made?

    I found some recipes for boiled ones made by repeatedly wetting the core
    and dusting it when wet in layers of glutinous rice flour, but they
    don't seem to be the same thing at all. The ones that I'm thinking of
    have a skin about a tenth of an inch thick.
