Dong Zhi Festival 2007

Dongzhi (節氣) falls on every 22nd December each year. Dong Zhi Festival is where Chinese in Malaysia, China, Japan or other country will celebrate this festival by rolling beautiful glutinous balls on the 21/12 night or 22/12 morning. One who celebrates or eat Dong Zhi Festival or Winter Solstice Festival will considered older by 1 year by Chinese myth.


Colourful Dong Zi Balls

My family and I made/rolled the colourful glutinous balls to celebrate this festival and we had rolled much bigger balls compare to last year's. We have five sweet colours which is White, Green, Brown, Red and Yellow for this year's Tang Yuen Festival.

This year you and bro really finished up the 1kg tang yuen. I think you both can sell tangyuen on this festive season next year. This is to encourage younger people to make and enjoy Tang Yuen. Bravo!
