What is this Chinese dessert?
Hello,
I’m looking to find the recipe for these hard to describe Chinese balls that I had for a dessert at their embassy awhile ago. The balls were very chewy, likely because they used rice flour… very gelatinous. I can’t remember whether or not these balls were covered with sesame seeds — which would make them Chinese sesame seed “balls”.
Anybody know what I am talkign about? What are those starchy balls?
Thanks,
Av
I gotta say that most Chinese desserts are bits size balls.
If it’s white opaque balls, it’s probably made with sweet rice flour. I’m surprised that you didn’t mention that they have any filling.
If they are very small, like the size of a button, they are probably just plan rice flour balls boiled in water. It can also be Tapioca. Or the Taiwanese “bubble”. They put them in tea or juice.
It could be Niangao, which comes in all kinds of shape, size and colours. It’s also known as Chinese rice cake.
hm… even if I do know what dessert you’re talking about. There is a lack of English translation in Chinese food. It might very well be called “Dumplings” or “rice cake” or “steam balls”, which includes 1000 varieties.
Really need more info. In soup? In syrup? Fried? Steamed? Boiled? What’s the size?
