Yuanxiao from the Ming Dynasty
Like a Chinese Game of Thrones, the story behind the writing of today's recipe for Yuanxiao (Tangyuan) is worthy of being made into an HBO series all its own.

DISH NAME
ORIGINAL 1620s RECIPE (From Zhuo Zhong Zhi)
“The cooking method uses glutinous rice that has been ground into a fine powder. The filling comprises the flesh of walnuts and white sugar. Water is sprinkled on the filling and the balls are rolled around in flour to form them. They are as big as walnuts. This is the same as what the people of the Jiangnan region call Tangyuan. ”
MODERN RECIPE
INGREDIENTS
-1 1/4 Cups (140g) Walnuts
- ½ Cup (100g) Sugar
- 4 Tablespoons (57g) Melted Lard or Melted Butter
- 4 Cups (450g) Glutinous Rice Flour
- Water
METHOD
1. Toast the walnuts (optional) in a pan over medium heat and let them cool. Then crush them fine, almost to a powder.
2. Mix the crushed walnuts, sugar, and lard/butter and mix until combined. Chill in the refrigerator for an hour or until it is cool.
3. Take the mixture and form it into small balls; about a dozen.
4. Take two large bowls, one filled with water and one with glutinous rice flour. Roll the balls in the glutinous rice flour until covered, then place them in a mesh sieve and dip them in the water. (You can also set them in the water and remove them with a slotted spoon). Then return them to the flour and roll again. Repeat this process 7-10 times, or until no filling can be seen.
5. Boil a large pot of water. Set the balls in the water and boil for 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the top. Note that the balls will expand, so leave plenty of room in the pot. Once the balls have floated to the top, pour a cup of cold water into the pot. This will stop the boiling and allow a skin to form on the balls. Allow the water to reheat to boiling and wait until the balls float again. Then remove and serve immediately.
