Should we eat Yuanxiao or Tangyuan on the Lantern Festival?

You can eat Yuanxiao (Chinese Yuanxiao) or Tangyuan (Chinese Tangyuan) on the Lantern Festival. Generally, during the Lantern Festival in my country, people in the north eat Yuanxiao (Chinese Yuanxiao), while people in the south eat Tangyuan (Chinese Glutinous Rice Balls).
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, people in the north eat Yuanxiao (Chinese Yuanxiao), while people in the south eat Tangyuan (Chinese Tangyuan). Many people think that glutinous rice balls and Yuanxiao are actually the same thing, just with different names. In fact, Yuanxiao and Tangyuan are two foods with completely different preparation methods and taste.
Yuanxiao and glutinous rice balls are two completely different things. The essential difference lies in the production process: Yuanxiao in the north is "rolled" out, while glutinous rice balls in the south are "wrapped". Expanded content - the difference between Yuanxiao and glutinous rice balls:
Different regions
Yuanxiao (Chinese lanterns) - North China, Tangyuan (Chinese glutinous rice balls) - South China
Different fillings
The filling of glutinous rice balls is high in moisture and soft; small glutinous rice balls without fillings can often be used to cook fermented rice wine and various sweet soups;
The filling for Yuanxiao should be dry and not too soft, but firm and chewy, otherwise it will be difficult to shape.
The fillings of glutinous rice balls can be salty or sweet, meat or vegetarian. In addition to the most traditional black sesame, five-nut, red bean paste, and hawthorn fillings, there are many fruit fillings on the market like strawberry, pineapple, and durian, as well as many flower flavors like jasmine, rose, and osmanthus, and there are coarse grains like purple sweet potato, pumpkin, and chestnut fillings.
Yuanxiao is relatively simple and is always sweet. The traditional ones are filled with black sesame or red bean paste, but gradually there are more new flavors.
Different consistency of soup
Yuanxiao - the soup becomes thicker after cooking Yuanxiao Tangyuan - the soup is very clear, unless you boil it to pieces
Different taste
The water content of glutinous rice balls filling is higher than that of Yuanxiao. The wet glutinous rice flour is extremely sticky. The surface of the glutinous rice balls made from it is smooth and shiny, with sufficient moisture, and tastes refreshing and tender. Yuanxiao, on the other hand, has a fuzzier texture.
