Hello, community ! Today I will write you about interesting sweets from China, India, and Japan.
My first post is dedicated to China.
Yuanxiao one of the oldest dainty in China.During the reign of the Song Dynasty, the dessert was very popular. As at all times, it was fashionable to have something extraordinary, for example, a dessert stuffed with a fruit candy. Yuanxiao is preparing of the glutinous rice flour and adds stuffing as desired. Very similar to our a dumpling. It is believed that those who eat this dessert provides well-being and happiness in the family. Now Yuanxiao served with ginger and syrup.
Mooncakes - one of the most impressive and marvelous desserts. Usually, they are preparing for Mid-Autumn Festival, which praises the moon. Its peculiarity is a filling. It is a paste of lotus seeds, beans, and red beans. Today mooncakes are presented to all family celebrations and weddings. People often place a family symbol or a character with a wish on lunar cakes.
By the way, if you see a rabbit on it , you should know that the rabbit is a symbol of the goddess of the moon.
Now you can find a lot of different recipes of lunar cakes and Yuanxiao depend on your taste. But I advise trying a traditional variant.
