The earliest record of eating Yuanxiao on the Lantern Festival can be found in the Song Dynasty. At that time, Yuanxiao was called "floating dumpling", "dumpling", "lactose dumpling" and "sugar dumpling". According to the records of historical materials, such as the sequel to Pingyuan, Guang Ji at the age of four, and the unified ode to Daming, Yuanxiao, as a timely food for celebrating the Lantern Festival, began in the Song Dynasty. Because the Lantern Festival must eat "Yuanzi", people use Yuanxiao to name it.

Sweet dumplings are sweet, so there is no need to add sugar to the soup to reduce calorie intake; If it is a small dumpling without stuffing, the soup can be replaced by sweet osmanthus, liqueur, scented tea, longan red date soup and longan ginger soup, which can have the effect of tonifying the body and dispelling cold; When cooking salty dumplings, you can put some vegetables to increase cellulose.

In the face of hot and fragrant dumplings, I can't help but want to take a big bite. Young and old must pay special attention. Remember to eat dumplings slowly and slowly to avoid choking my throat or trachea. Because glutinous rice balls contain a high amount of "sugar", and sesame, fresh meat and peanuts contain "high fat" and "high calorie", you must eat them in small quantities, and don't eat too much at once.
