Brainstorm

The food I chose is called Jin Dui- a fried ball with a crunchy outside and soft inside with filling that could be either sweet or savory. This is something meant for Chinese New Year and we don't usually have it any other time. So, we like to consider it a special treat and savor the moment. I remember every Chinese New Year I would help my mom make large batches to give to friends and family. I loved seeing the smile on their faces everytime we deliver it to their doorstep. Some sensory details I would use to describe it is the sound of crunchiness you hear when you take a bite. Puffs of steam rush toward your face as it reveals the inside along with a sweet or savory filling. I will be interviewing my mom about the Jin Dui because no one else in my family can make it as good as she does.

  1. Your brainstorm was very descriptive and I understand what you mean. You should describe more about what you saw.
