After the tea is cooked, the cook needs to quickly scoop and spread the tea while it is still hot to make it easier to create a mold. Even with that texture, tea can even use a mold to close like a pot. After you’re done, quickly put some white sesame seeds on top because the sesame won’t stick when it’s cooled.
