Hmm sounds interesting. I wonder if I'll be able to find some around here.
|
We usually just cook them in plain water. o_O;; |
urghhh... died with eating soup round? DX
|
I've heard that with Mochi too because of the stickiness.
|
Yeah. The stickiness will sometimes cause them to stick in people's throats and choke them to death. Though the part about the hot soup rounds (lol) killing people was probably due to it being so hot on the inside while the outer skin was cooler. The person eating it would think it was cooler, and when the soup round's going down their throat, it'd burst and then badly burn their windpipe. |
... I will NEVER eat any of them anymore~! :<
|
Just take small manageable bites and chew thoroughly. [lol]
I'd like to try some of dumplings you guys were talking about. Seems interesting. |
No one's saying you have to swallow them whole! In fact, if you do, you're eating it wrong. [gonk] |
hmm... so I understood it wrong? the victim didn't chew it before? O__O
|
Maybe they swallowed too fast or something, which can happen when people are so eager for tasties. [XD] |
omg Hot soup round. [rofl]
I usually call them rice dumplings myself. [lol] I like the black sesame ones best. The night market near my house sells them with hot ginger soup on Saturdays, so I sometimes get them for dessert. :B |
Eek, ginger soup. [gonk] |
Ouch sound like a painful way to go.
|
Yeah. Burns of all manner suck. [gonk] |
heh... we are not influential enough to officialize the name soup round... what a pity.
Actually... I had not been having soup round for several years. Family don't especially celebrate that. By the way, talking about that... reminds me of mooncake. My father received the mooncake gift box from Concorde Hotel. Awesome box! Lately these few years, mooncake gift boxes is so creative. |
Yeah...we don't really celebrate 元宵節 either, we just eat them because they're usually on sale around the time so we can buy some frozen packets of them. [XD] |
... I haven't ate mooncake for ages too... well, I think last year I tried a bite.
But yeah, before that, more than 10 years, I didn't taste the moon cake. Anyway, the focus is not the mooncake. It is the BOX! |
What's so special about the boxes? [:O] The ones I've seen all look pretty normal. |
|
Except for the last one, I've seen the other three before...even had some of them at home as gifts from others. The faux-suitcase one is really cool. [lol] |
Mooncake! [gonk] Been too long since I've had one. [cry]
|
whaaa... Antata regard those as ordinary boxes?
I collect those boxes. x.x So useful, organizing my art tools and collections. You ever heard of a giftbox made of gold? Some even accompany with diamonds... O__O I heard it from a radio news. Ikuku~ aww... you like mooncake? |
@Iku: ...I'd gladly give you half the mooncakes we have. [gonk] (leaving the rest for my parents [XD]) |
My mum made mooncakes this year, first time in a while. She prepared the fillings for them the day before yesterday, the 5 nut one and mung bean filling...then she made the biscuit dough yesterday, which is used to line the mould. The fillings go into the dough lined moulds then they're baked, brushed with egg then baked to golden glossiness. Mind you, that method is very time consuming, and is all from watching and helping make them in years past, because I was out all day yesterday so couldn't help this time.

Yeah, it is pretty time consuming. @[email protected] |
