The Lunar New Year is a festive occasion for many all over the world. It’s a holiday that’s rich in tradition, spent with family and friends, celebrated with fireworks, and more importantly, lots of good food shared with loved ones.
Chinese New Year culinary traditions are also steeped in symbolism, all designed to satisfy palates, while representing the wholeness and prosperity of the coming year. The auspicious nature of a dish is largely based on its pronunciation or its appearance. And while pork is already traditionally a holiday centerpiece, for Chinese New Year, pork takes on more meaning because they are said to symbolize a prosperous life.
