• Thai fried rice
• Tangyuan (China, Taiwan) is a traditional (at least from Ming dynasty) food that is made from glutinous rice paste that has been rolled into small balls, boiled, then put into a soup base. These are traditionally white in color like the new moon and eaten during the first full moon after Chinese New Year and symbolize togetherness of family. They are also often pink, or a mixture of pink and white balls, because red is good luck in Chinese culture (but red dye added to the white results in pink). Sometimes savory or sweet stuffings (such as red bean paste) are added.
• Tapai
