Chinese in the world today celebrates 'Dong Zhi' or commonly known as Winter Solstice in the western world. The festival is one of the most important festivals celebrated by the Chinese and other East Asians usually on or around December 21st when sunshine is weakest and daylight is the shortest.
A must have delicacy for this occasion is the ''Tang Yuen'' (sweet glutinous rice ball dessert). The preparation usually begins the night before where all the family members gather around, which symbolise reunion and knead the flour and form it into small and large glutinous balls. The ''Tang Yuen'' is then left over night and cooked early next morning.
Below is the preparation of mine. I'm too lazy to get the flour and make it from scratch so, i got the ready-made from the store.
Anyway, i missed celebrating the festival again with my family this year. Never mind, i'm flying back home in 28days for CNY, hoooray!!! Here, i would like to wish all of you 'Happy Winter Solstice' !!
