Tang Yuan

Tang Yuan are traditional Chinese sweet rice balls made from glutinous rice flour, often filled with ingredients like sesame paste, red bean paste, or peanut paste. They are typically cooked by boiling until they float, symbolizing unity and reunion. Tang Yuan are commonly enjoyed during festivals such as the Lantern Festival and Winter Solstice, representing family togetherness. Their chewy texture and sweet fillings make them a comforting dessert, celebrated for both their flavor and cultural significance in Chinese traditions.
