The Story Behind Nian Gao: In Chinese culture, Nian Gao is much more than a tasty treat – it carries deep symbolism. The word “Nian” means “year,” while “Gao” sounds like “tall” or “high,” representing growth, progress, and a year filled with prosperity. Eating Nian Gao during Chinese New Year is believed to bring good fortune, as it signifies the promise of growth and success in the year ahead.

How to Enjoy Nian Gao:

1. Stir-fried Nian Gao: This savory dish is a fan favorite! Simply stir-fry the rice cakes with vegetables, meat (chicken, pork, or beef), and a flavorful soy sauce for a hearty, satisfying meal.

2. Nian Gao Soup: For a lighter option, try adding your rice cakes to a hot soup with broth, greens, and a dash of ginger – perfect for colder weather or a comforting meal.

3. Sweet Nian Gao: Don’t forget the sweet side! You can also steam Nian Gao with brown sugar and coconut milk for a delicious dessert that’s soft and naturally sweet.
