A rice cake consists of puffed rice. When the rice is harvested, it is peeled and cleaned so that small stones and unripe rice are separated. Then water is added to the rice grains.

Due to the disappearance of the moisture, the puffed rice grains stick together. After cooling, you will have a crunchy wafer.
