018 All About the Lunar New Year with Anonymous

Last Modified: Jul 12, 2023 · This post may contain affiliate links

Welcome to another bonus episode! In these episodes, I don’t get to try a new recipe. However, I DO get to dig a little deeper into a topic raised in a regular episode. 

Earlier this week, I released an interview featuring Emily Ho. In it, we discussed her family’s Sticky Rice Cake. This cake, otherwise known as Nian Gao, is traditionally eaten for Chinese New Year. 

I was so intrigued by the things we discussed, I reached out to Huilan and asked her to teach me more about the beliefs and traditions surrounding the New Year - including, of course, favorite celebratory foods.
