Look, dark gray goo in a white ball! Don't you want to eat it? Yes!...

Well, I do because I know it's just a sesame rice ball, known as tang yuan in Chinese and one of the few Chinese desserts that I'd actually long for. Bite into the glutinous rice-based skin and unleash the hot, sweet, black sesame paste within. Where I'm Cooking From knows what I'm talking about; she says, "Now all I want is to introduce as many people as I can to the sesame rice ball experience, if only to have company while I eat mine."
