Winter solstice festival or dōngzhì (in chinese) is celebrated around December 21/22 every year. It signifies the start of a new year. This festival is celebrated with the making and eating of 'thong yuen' which is also known as glutinous rice balls. Traditionally, my family would make them plain but this year I've decided to make them with fillings - red bean and peanut paste. But I would say that I prefer eating them plain with pandan syrup! Ahaha...
