What is Tang Yuan?

Tang yuan is a traditional Chinese dessert made of glutinous rice shaped into balls that is served in a sweet ginger syrup. It is customarily eaten on the 15th day of the Chinese New Year (Yuan Xiao 元宵) and Winter Solstice because the name is a homophone for reunion (traditional Chinese: 團圓; simplified Chinese: 团圆; pinyin: tuányuán) and symbolizes togetherness and completeness.
