HAPPY WINTER SOLSTICE ! Today is winter solstice day (every 22 December) ... according to us - chinese, this festival is even bigger than Chinese New Year ..... supposed to be the longest night in the chinese calendar. People eat Tang Yuen to keep their body warm during the cold month of December.Its round in shape because the we believe that its symbolized harmony in the family = Tang Yuen !
We used to make Tang Yuen with no fillings but as we go by we've been spoilt with choices of Tang Yuen filling .... balck sesame, peanuts, red bean, etc.... YUMMY !
Of course, for us its not only Tang Yuen for dinner tonight but with fish, chicken and all sorts of vegatable to make the whole dinner complete !
The ordinary arts we practice everyday at home are of more importance to the soul than their simplicity might suggest !
