That sweet round thing - Tang Yuan (Sweet Peanut Dumpling in Ginger Soup)

That's one long title!

Today's recipe was adapted from Cook, Snap, Savour's adaptation of Rasa Malaysia. Ever bought an ingredient for a certain recipe and then been left with so much of it you're not quite sure what to do? Well, that happens to me far too often! This time it was glutinous rice flour from the mochi I made, and a sesame and mixed nut mixture from Chinese New Year Dinner.

These little sweet things are called Tang Yuan in Chinese meaning, sweet & round. They're usually made for special occasions though you can find them all year round in various food stalls and the variety offered is astounding!

Memory - Matcha Mochi

I have an appalling memory if I don't concentrate. There are photos of items I've baked that have never made it to this page because I forgot where the recipe is. Pretty frustrating.
I really must make it a point to write down/save the recipe as I go along.

I still have some red bean paste left from a while ago so I figured I'd try my hand at making mochi since I've been craving it for a while. This mochi wasn't sweet enough for me though the red bean was pretty tasty.
