At home,my mom makes the round eehs and cook it in syrup.

My late grandma told me of another variation – cooked in meat soup (salty). That is made by the ‘Sin Neng’ dialect group.

Just like to share with you guys the significant of "Dang Chaek", which is not only celebrated by Chinese but a lot of other cultures. Chinese has two type of calendar system, the lunar and the solar one, 'Dang Chaek' follows the solar one because it's related to the sun and they usually falls around 22 Dec. Dang Chaek is winter solstice in the northern hemisphere = the shortest day. Many cultures celebrated it because they know that day light from then onward will only get longer (like renewal) until summer solstice. The old folks who calls Christmas "Armo Dang Chaek" are indeed very wise as there are a lot of truth in that as well. But I will not get into it here, you can read all about it in wiki or some website like this one: http://www.candlegrove.com/solstice.html Anyway Happy Dang Chaek to everybody in the northern hemisphere and Happy Summer Solstice to everybody in the southern hemisphere!!

Oh ya, the real meaning of the words “Jati” = asli, murni, tulen, tidak bercampur. Of cos the other meaning is “Kayu Jati” = sejenis pokok yg kayunya dibuat perkakas.
