What is "htamane"

Htamanè (, , also spelt htamane) is a glutinous rice-based savory snack, and a seasonal festive delicacy in Myanmar. The traditional delicacy is ceremonially prepared around and on the full moon day of Tabodwe , the 11th lunar month on the traditional Burmese calendar (roughly in February), just as the cool season ends. Some pagodas and monasteries, including the Shwedagon Pagoda, hold htamane-making competitions .
