The highlight of the Dragon-i Fruits Platter is the cute-looking citrus fruit called 'Kumquat'. In Cantonese, the word 'Kumquat' literally means 'golden tangerine'. The fruit has always been a favourite especially during the Chinese New Year, so the fruit is therefore thought to bring luck for the coming year.
Served on a dry ice platter together with chilled grapes and strawberries, these kumquats makes an awesome colourful presentation especially with the dry ice smoke-effects.

Hi Aunty Lilly, Looking great as usual! How do you keep so slim around so much good food? Anyway I have a question...sorry if it is stupid but it's an honest one :) 'Each ingredient in the Yee Sang signifies good wishes for the Monkey year; from the pepper and five-spice powder for health and wealth, plum sauce for sweetness in life, to the raw fish which represents the word "yu" or abundance.' <---does it mean that different years there will be different ingredients to signify different things?
ReplyDeleteHi Jaishana, The ingredients in our Yee Sang is always pretty much the same every year irrespective of which Chinese zodiac year we are celebrating. The pepper, five spice powder, plum sauce and raw fish are the basic ingredients for the making of yee sang. Even the must used ingredients of radish, carrot, scallions and coriander leaves used carries a meaning to the festive dish.
