Dragon fruit glutinous rice balls
Overview
The Lantern Festival is a traditional Chinese festival that dates back to the Western Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago. Lantern Festival originally meant the night of the Lantern Festival. Because the main activity of the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was eating glutinous rice balls and admiring the moon at night, the name of the festival later evolved into the Lantern Festival. On the night of the Lantern Festival, the streets and alleys are decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. People admire the lanterns, guess lantern riddles, and eat the Lantern Festival. The celebrations that started on New Year's Eve push to another climax and become a custom that has been passed down from generation to generation. Tangyuan is one of the representatives of traditional Chinese snacks. It is a spherical food made of glutinous rice flour. It usually has fillings and is cooked and eaten with soup. It is also the most distinctive food of the Lantern Festival. It has a long history. It is said that glutinous rice balls originated in the Song Dynasty. Tangyuan symbolizes a better family reunion, and eating glutinous rice balls means family happiness and reunion in the new year, so it is a must-have delicacy during the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month. I have loved Chinese New Year since I was a child, and loved eating dumplings and glutinous rice balls made by my mother. Now that life has improved, glutinous rice balls and dumplings are not so seasonal anymore. You can eat them anytime you want, especially glutinous rice balls. Not only are the fillings rich and colorful, but the shape and color are also getting more and more beautiful. I made glutinous rice flour with pitaya juice and mixed it into glutinous rice balls to make glutinous rice balls. They are really beautiful, delicious and nutritious.
