About Sesame ball

Sesame Balls, known as "Jian Dui" in Chinese cuisine, are a beloved treat often enjoyed during holidays and festive occasions across East and Southeast Asia. These chewy and crisp delights feature glutinous rice flour as their base, which is shaped into balls, stuffed with sweet fillings like red bean paste or lotus seed paste, then coated in sesame seeds and deep-fried to golden perfection. Their sesame seed exterior not only adds a nutty aroma but also delivers a dose of healthy fats, fiber, and essential minerals. While sesame seeds have nutritional benefits, Sesame Balls are calorie-dense due to their deep-fried preparation and the use of refined sugar in fillings. Moderation is key when enjoying this indulgent dessert, making it an occasional treat rather than an everyday snack.
