Tangyuan, also known as Yuanxiao, Tangtuan and Piao Zi Yuan, is one of the representatives of traditional snacks in China, and it is a spherical food made of glutinous rice flour. There are usually fillings, which are cooked and eaten with soup. At the same time, it is also the most distinctive food of the Lantern Festival with a long history.
According to legend, Tangyuan originated in the Song Dynasty. At that time, Mingzhou (now Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province) began to eat a novel food, which was filled with black sesame seeds and lard, added with a little sugar, and wrapped in glutinous rice flour. After cooking, it tastes sweet, delicious and interesting. Because this kind of dumpling is floating and heavy when cooked in a pot, it was originally called "floating Zi Yuan", and was later renamed as dumpling in some areas.
Tangyuan symbolizes better family reunion, and eating it means family happiness and reunion in the new year, so it is a must-have food for the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month. In some areas in the south, people will also get used to eating glutinous rice balls during the Spring Festival instead of jiaozi.
Tangyuan is sweet, and 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 osmanthus, liqueur, scented tea, longan red date soup and longan ginger soup, which can play a role in tonifying the body and dispelling cold; When making salty dumplings, you can add some vegetables to increase the cellulose.
I can't help but want to take a big bite in the face of the hot and fragrant jiaozi. All ages should pay special attention. Remember to eat jiaozi slowly so as not to choke my throat or trachea. Because glutinous rice balls contain a lot of "sugar" and sesame seeds, and fresh meat and peanuts contain "high fat" and "high calories", you must eat them in small quantities, not too much at once.
