Cooking Diary: Tong Yuen

I'm gonna start taking some pictures of my food! Today I tried making tong yuen (glutinous rice balls in sweet soup) - it was alright but making them into nice round balls that don't burst is actually quite tough. Could definitely be improved! Nevertheless, here's a pic :)

    has it got stuffing in each tong yuen? did you make it from the very start? I'll give you 75 marks. you learned it from Francis or Alice or cookbook? it seems that you really got talent in cooking :b

    The tong yuen looks good. What sugar did you use for the soup? We normally use "brown candy" from Chinese supermarket (in rectangular block shape). From the picture, we will give you a 9 out of 10.

    The soup's made with yellow rock sugar and sliced ginger.

    The filling is peanut butter and brown sugar, it was probably the weak point of the dish because I couldn't get the flavour balance right. I'll have to try some other filling next time!
