Glutinous Rice Balls are delightful treats originating from East Asia, particularly popular in Chinese cuisine. Made from glutinous rice flour, they are chewy and soft, often filled with sweet surprises like red bean paste, sesame, or even fruit. Traditionally enjoyed during festivals, especially during the Lantern Festival, these balls symbolize reunion and harmony. While they offer a unique texture and taste, it's worth noting that they can be high in sugar, depending on the filling. Nevertheless, their low fat content and the use of rice flour make them a fun and satisfying snack when enjoyed in moderation.
