Eight Treasure Sweet Rice Pudding
Originally, I wanted to say tonight is dedicated to China Night. On the second thought, I felt that did not sound right; it’s kind of too pretentious and pompous since what I really intended to say was I am crazy about my favorite CNY desert – Eight Treasure Sweet Rice Pudding although it indeed comes from China. JTo tell the truth, when I was in China I would be the guy who was able to devour half the desert just by myself at the table of eve of Spring Festival family feast. Please don’t forget I could demonstrate such “stunning” capability after the big meal. My parents used to worry about me for getting sick even they would love to watch me burying my face into the plate and enjoying myself with the spoon. L When I got older, I became much more disciplined on these kinds of stuffs with rich contents of cabs. Even so, time to time, if I knew the meal would include Eight Treasure Sweet Rice Pudding, I’d, on purpose, economize my main dishes a bit just in order to save some room for this sweet, savory and splendid desert. If anyone has not tried this traditional CNY desert before, you don’t know what you’d have missed. J
