There are many kinds of rice cakes, but as you mention that package
directions in Chinese I reckon that they are Chinese rice cakes.
If what you are trying to reach is to puff up the rice cakes, fry(deep) them
in vegetable oil first then drain in colander and add to your favourite stir
fry dish. Otherwise cook them in your favourite soup.
Fujian province is famous for its rice cake dishes.
Korean and Japanese rice cake dishes are great too.
But as they are not the same type of rice you need to prepare them in
different ways.
happy new year!!! rice cake is a happy new year stuff
