What is the difference between Yuanxiao and Tangyuan during the Lantern Festival?
Every time the Lantern Festival comes, we can hear that people eat glutinous rice balls (Tangyuan) on the Lantern Festival. Some people may wonder why we eat glutinous rice balls instead of Yuanxiao (Yuanxiao) on the Lantern Festival? Could it be that Yuanxiao and Tangyuan are actually the same thing? How to make Yuanxiao and Tangyuan? If you want to know more about the first month of the lunar calendar in 2018, please pay attention to our fortune teller website!What is the difference between Yuanxiao and Tangyuan during the Lantern Festival?Yuanxiao and Tangyuan are not the same food. In comparison, Yuanxiao was originally more popular in the north, while Tangyuan was originally popular in the south.① Glutinous rice balls ingredients: 200g glutinous rice flour, 15g cornstarch, 100g black sesame, 60g powdered sugar, 55-60g lard (can be replaced with butter), 125g warm water, 15g boiling water. Method: Add glutinous rice flour to warm water and mix well. Add cornstarch to boiling water and mix well, then add to the glutinous rice flour. Knead several times until the dough is soft and smooth. Let it stand for 10 minutes for later use. Fry the black sesame seeds, put them into a blender and grind them into small pieces, add powdered sugar and semi-melted lard and mix well (if using granulated sugar, grind them together with the black sesame seeds). After refrigerating the prepared filling for half an hour, take out and roll them into black sesame balls of the same size. The glutinous rice dough is also evenly formed into small pieces of uniform size. Take a piece of glutinous rice dough and knead it into a ball, press it into a dough skin, put in the fillings, and wrap it tightly. When everything is done, boil water in a pot. After the water boils, put the glutinous rice balls in the pot and boil them. When the glutinous rice balls float up, cook for another two or three minutes before enjoying them. ②The method of making the black sesame filling for Yuanxiao is the same as above. Take a larger, deeper container, a basin of clean water, and a colander. Put glutinous rice flour and black sesame filling rolled into small balls into the container. Shake the bowl to make the filling evenly covered with glutinous rice flour, put it into the colander, soak it in clean water for three seconds, take it out, and continue to put it into the flour to roll it into a ball. Repeat this step about eight to ten times. There will be small cracks on the surface of the rolled Yuanxiao. You can stick them with clean water and then some flour. The volume of the rolled Yuanxiao is about twice the size of the filling. |
