Overview

Every year during the Lantern Festival, I like to make glutinous rice balls. I always imagine myself to be a food artist and make various innovative glutinous rice balls. I have tried all kinds of flower fillings, beef fillings, sesame and walnut fillings, and bean paste and red date fillings, but my family’s favorite is the classic and traditional black sesame flavored one. It really took all my innovative spirit away. This year I decided to start making various ways to eat glutinous rice balls based on the black sesame glutinous rice balls. I made boiled glutinous rice balls, golden glutinous rice balls, Longjing glutinous rice balls, and glutinous rice dumplings on skewers. This experiment was really good and was liked and praised by my family. The first way to eat it is to boil it in water. It has a soft, glutinous and sweet taste. My parents like it the most. The second way to eat it is golden glutinous rice balls, which are wrapped in crushed corn flakes and fried. The texture is crispy on the outside and glutinous on the inside. It is my favorite and highly recommended. The third way to eat Longjing glutinous rice balls is to pour the boiled glutinous rice balls into the brewed Longjing tea. They taste sweet and not greasy, and also have a faint tea aroma. This is my husband's favorite. The fourth way to eat it is glutinous rice balls on skewers, which are steamed in a pot. After steaming, they are coated with chocolate with a smiley face. They taste like stuffed rice cakes and are full of elasticity. This one is my daughter’s favorite. Starting from making glutinous rice balls, I will introduce these ways to eat them one by one. First, wrap the classic black sesame glutinous rice glutinous rice balls.
