Auspicious Ingredient For Chinese New Year
Hello Friend,
There are several types of food ingredients that are considered "good" to eat during Chinese New Year.
One of it is fatt choy (发菜). It is the black, noodle-like jelly in the photo above.
It looks like seaweed, but it is actually not! Fatt choy grows in dry areas like the Gobi Desert in China.
Why do people love to eat fatt choy during Chinese New Year?
Because its name sounds like "striking rich" (发财) in Chinese! :-)
For more information about fatt choy and Vistana's banquet dinner during this Chinese New Year...
What other type of food ingredients do you only see during Chinese New Year? Please share with me, because I may not know about them too. :-)
