Tangyuan

Tangyuan is a traditional Chinese dessert made of glutinous rice flour, forming chewy balls often filled with sweet ingredients like sesame paste, red bean paste, or peanut butter. These delightful treats are typically served in a warm, sweet soup, usually flavored with ginger or pandan leaves. Tangyuan is especially popular during the Lantern Festival and the Winter Solstice, symbolizing family unity and togetherness. The round shape of the balls represents completeness and harmony, making them a meaningful dish for celebrations and family gatherings in Chinese culture.
