When I was younger, Mum would make tang yuan soup on December the 22nd every year for some tang yuan festival. However, when we went to Taiwan, they seem to sell it on a daily basis at the shops so I made Mum make it for me when we came back. For those of you that don't know, tang yuan is a glutinous rice ball usually found in ginger soup.
