Htamanè

Htamanè (Burmese: ထမနဲ, pronounced [tʰəmənɛ́], Mon: ယိုဟ်သ္ၚု,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 (တပို့တွဲ), 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 (ထမနဲထိုးပြိုင်ပွဲ).
