Tang Yuan is widely known in the Chinese community. It is not only eaten during the winter solstice festival but it is also commonly eaten during the Lunar New Year.
Instead of the regular usually coloured glutinous ball, make this tangerine looking glutinous ball for your family. It could be a good way to start off the new year by bonding with your family members.
