DONGZHI冬至= WINTER SOLSTICE
Winter Solstice is one of the important celebrations in Chinese culture. Traditionally, the Dongzhi Festival is also a time for the family to get together. One activity that occurs during these get-togethers (especially in the southern parts of China is the making and eating of tangyuan (湯圓) or glutinous rice balls, which symbolize reunion. Tangyuan are usually in bright colours. They are cooked in a sweet soup. It is also often served with a mildly alcoholic unfiltered rice wine containing whole grains of glutinous rice (and often also Sweet Osmanthus flowers), called jiuniang. It is going to be on 21st December this year. There is a saying if you eat the tang yuan means u are a year older. Hahaha we refused to be older but still eat them anyway as they are so chewy and yummy. I had great memories of my Poh Poh making them every year. Maya loves making them herself, so we have never failed to follow the tradition and make them every year on dongzhi. In fact, Maya was the one who will remind me about tang yuan every year since her school does tell them about the celebration.
They are so easy to prepare and cook. Within 20 mins you can actually have a nice bowl of them if you dont cook with sweet potatoes.
Ingredients for glutinous rice balls :
2 cups glutinous rice, sticky rice flour
200 ml water
food colouring (or make natural colouring from pandan, dragon fruit and so on)
*this is the usual measurements. If you are making a lot. Just add on accordingly.
Ingredients for the soup (I have a 5 litres pot) :
200 g or more ginger slices (pound), best to use Bentong Ginger if you like it spicy. If I wasnt cooking for kids, I will add double the amount
6 pandan leaves
4.5 litres of water
3 cups sweet potatoe cubes (this is an add-on)
1 pack of rock sugar (depending on sweetness)
You may also add palm sugar, peanut paste, seasame paste, red bean paste inside the tang yuan. We have tried chocolate before. They are not bad, just not traditional enough. Do try molding them into cute characters. Kids will enjoy them even more.
Enjoy making them and tell me the result ok!

Love is like a meteor, things still remained the same as before. Burns half as long, twice as bright. It’s beyond what we expect, then it's the reality.
How to embrace the change that’s suddenly forced upon us? Adaptation is one answer but it's also worth remembering that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Changing before we’re forced to change is the only way out.
It’s all about human nature, including those unkind things. It’s time to make up our own minds. We've got our whole lives before it’s taken by cruel people.
However, everything is so fragile and there's so much conflict and pain...”It” is still there looking for love and stargazing in my sight.

在型式轉變之前,你必須要改變的是自己;在人性面前,善良不該是退讓的理由。
當人已拿矛相對,你該做的不是以肉身正面迎擊或者埋頭逃避,而是以盾為止、以槍還擊;再怎麼不忍,也該就此看清,這就是人性的黑暗。
也許一切都是試煉的任務,一切只有經歷過了,你才會發現它是來自老天爺爺精心設計的禮物。

若能因此看清糖衣下的殘酷事實,一切的煎熬與糾結也值得了。繼續往前走吧,走出你美好的人生!
