Jian Dui, also known as sesame balls, is a popular Chinese dessert originating from ancient China, often enjoyed during festivals and special occasions. These golden, crispy treats are made from glutinous rice flour, rolled in sesame seeds, and typically filled with sweet red bean paste, lotus seed paste, or black sesame paste. They are deep-fried, giving them their signature crunchy exterior and chewy interior. While Jian Dui offers a satisfying blend of textures and flavors, they are calorie-dense due to the frying process and high carbohydrate content. However, their sesame seed coating is a source of healthy fats, fiber, and essential minerals like calcium and magnesium. Moderation is key when indulging in this delightful treat, as its sugar and fat content can add up quickly. Enjoying Jian Dui as an occasional dessert can complement a balanced diet and celebrate its rich cultural heritage.
