I fast forwarded Dongzhi aka Winter Solstice and celebrated it early. Made these Savoury Tong Yuen or glutinous rice balls and had this for lunch with my family. Normally, I would make sweet tong yuen but this year I thought I'd try something different which will double up as a meal as well instead of having it just for dessert. Dongzhi falls on this Friday, 21st December 2012.
