Calculations:
Per serving:

  • Frozen Tangyuan: 11 pieces. Quantity depends on the bowl size. Ensure the height of the Tangyuan in the bowl does not exceed the bowl's height by more than -5mm.
  • Note to add the Tangyuan to the water and then add the hot water, do not reverse the order; otherwise, pouring the Tangyuan into boiling water may cause splashing and burns. Also, hot water height cannot be controlled, which may cause overflow.
  • If the bowl in the microwave is too hot to remove, you can use a towel, or some microwaves allow you to remove the entire tray.
