**Orange Balls: A Delightful Culinary Journey**

Orange Balls, also known as Jin Dui, are a traditional Chinese pastry that combines the vibrant flavors of orange with the soft texture of glutinous rice flour. Originating in the southern Chinese province of Guangdong, these delectable treats are a staple of Cantonese cuisine and hold a special place in Chinese New Year celebrations, symbolizing prosperity and good fortune.

This article presents two irresistible variations of Orange Balls: the classic recipe and a modernized version with an orange-flavored filling. Both recipes offer a unique culinary experience, ensuring there's an Orange Ball to satisfy every palate. Whether you prefer the traditional approach or the delightful fusion of flavors, these recipes promise to tantalize your taste buds and leave you craving more.

**Classic Orange Balls:**

This timeless recipe captures the essence of Orange Balls in its purest form. Glutinous rice flour and sugar are combined to create a soft and chewy dough, while freshly grated orange zest infuses it with a vibrant citrus aroma. The balls are then deep-fried until golden brown, resulting in a crispy exterior that perfectly complements the soft and flavorful interior.

**Orange Balls with Orange-Flavored Filling:**

This contemporary take on Orange Balls elevates the classic recipe with an additional layer of citrusy goodness. The dough is prepared using the same method as the classic recipe, but a sweet and tangy orange-flavored filling is added to the center of each ball before frying. The result is a burst of orange flavor in every bite, creating a delightful balance between the crispy exterior and the juicy, flavorful filling.

Both variations of Orange Balls are sure to impress your family and friends, whether served as a delightful snack or as a special treat during Chinese New Year celebrations. With their vibrant orange color and delectable flavors, these pastries are a true testament to the culinary artistry of Chinese cuisine.

Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Yield 24-36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (12 ounce) box crushed vanilla wafers
1 lb powdered sugar
1/2-1 cup oleo
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 (6 ounce) can frozen orange juice, thawed (undiluted)
coconut or powdered sugar

  • Add melted oleo.
  • Add nuts; then add juice.
  • Stir well.
  • Make into balls and roll in fine coconut or powdered sugar.
  • Refrigerate.

Tips:

  • Don't overcook the oranges. Otherwise, they will become tough and chewy. Cook them until they are soft, but still slightly firm.
  • If you don't have a blender or food processor, you can use a hand mixer to puree the oranges. Just be sure to puree them until they are very smooth.
  • Be careful not to overcook the mixture. Otherwise, it will become too thick and dry. Cook it until it is thick enough to hold its shape, but still slightly moist.
  • Let the mixture cool completely before forming it into balls. This will help them to hold their shape better.
  • If you want the balls to be extra sweet, you can coat them in sugar before rolling them in coconut.

Conclusion:

Orange balls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover oranges, and they can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
