Dough sculpture was once very popular in rural China. Dough was made with flour and glutinous rice and cooked in hot water. The artisan used simple implements : a comb, scissors, a slip of cow horn, and a small knife. Techniques include kneading, rolling, pricking and sharpening. Dough figures were sometimes used in weddings, funerals and other ceremonies. 1, record 2, English, - dough%20sculpture
