Winter solstice festival is one of the most important festivals celebrated by Chinese. Chinese always said "冬大过年" which means this festival is even more important than chinese new year. Y? I have no idea. All I know is a day of reunion with family.
汤圆汤圆，团圆团圆
冬至一定要吃汤圆
Tang Yuan (rice balls), the dessert will occurs during this festival which is symbolize reunion.
汤圆是用糯米粉制成的，不知道是因个人喜好还是有特别意义，大家都会加点红色素，应该是要看起来比较喜气吧！
Tang Yuan are made of glutinous rice flour, most people will add red pigment so that the Tang Yuan look more pleasing.
小时候婆婆告诉我，当年几岁就必须吃几颗汤圆。现在嘛.........婆婆你还是把汤圆搓得越小越好啊！😂
My grandma told me, the quantity of Tang Yuan that you have to eat must be same with your age.
But now......... Well, grandma you better make it as small as you can.😂
虽然汤圆好吃，但是属于难消化的食品，大家要适可而止哦！
祝大家冬至快乐！
Happy Winter Solstice Festival!
