2. Tangyuan, also known as Yuanxiao, Tangtuan and Piao Zi Yuan, is one of the representatives of traditional snacks in China, and 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.

There are also some good things in the stuffing, that is, sesame seeds, peanuts and various nuts, as well as red bean paste. Nut raw materials have high nutritional value, and soybean paste also contains a lot of protein and minerals. In contrast, chocolate stuffing has the lowest nutritional value. It is likely that cocoa butter and chocolate-flavored spices are put in it, and the so-called cream jiaozi has similar problems. As for the glutinous rice balls filled with salty meat, there is too much oil and there is nothing to recommend them.

4. Tangyuan itself 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.
