I hope Jasmine suprises Kelly or Katie with a translated 20 times Lunar new year dessert or dish for Lunar New year for them to recreate

Love how they explain culture too! Each country has traditional food that people eat for some special occasions and I enjoy getting to know them😍

And..all three desserts look incredibly yummy for sure😋💓

I love this because a lot of people don’t celebrate this so it’s really nice to see that someone represents its cooking

[notjenna]

I totally miss being able to go to lunar new year festivals and just celebrating them. the memory i had when i was little just walking around at night with my family and looking at the lanterns, the people who preformed chinese dragon dances, the food, the cats that you would pet at the temple, the firecrackers, the money you get ;)) and just the whole time was awesome. hopefully when things clear up they could hold more festivals.

I really wanna make these for my kindergarten class when we celebrate lunar new year next week!!

The tangyuan filling can even be peanut, coconut, or just by itself and it still will taste really good 🤤

Very well explained. Everything looks super delicious.

The part about aunts asking questions about your life is the best 🤣

In Indonesia the sesame ball popularly called Onde-Onde, and yes they are delightful to eat 😍👌

I love celebrating the Lunar new year with my family back in Thailand, it has always been a blessing that we get to celebrate it together. I moved back to the UK and still keep a tradition of leaving food for a sort of shrine. I didn't have time to pray to it this morning but after I came back from school I sat me and my sister down and taught her what we do. The Lunar new year is something I'd be devastated to lose❤️

I’ve never celebrated the Lunar new year but these treats look INCREDIBLE. Super cool to learn about this tradition ☺️💚

My mom is from
Singapore and we live in Switzerland, we haven’t been able to go back to SG for three years and we eat these delicious treats every time we go there so while watching this I remember how delicious it tasted in SG and I miss it so much 😭😭 thank god my mom makes these from
time to time😻

Hey Jasmine, just made the Fortune Cakes. They were amazingly simple thanks to your clear instructions. Can't wait to try them! Happy New Year to you!

[Benni]

I honestly LOOOVEEE Lunar New Year soooo much better than regular new year, bc of all the pretty colors and yummy food! I’m not Asian myself, but I have an adopted sister from China! She also loves Chinese New Year as well, and we decorate our house with similar decorations as in the video! Of course, we couldn’t have as big of a celebration bc of COVID, but we still Zoom each of our family members in a group meeting and they have the same desserts and decorations as us and it’s so fun! 😍 🧧🎎🎊

First time seeing someone also appreciate others' cultures. Thank you Jasmine, the recipes are dope.

[kim-lzb]

“So don’t use all purpose flour, You”re gonna be so sad”. 🤣😂😂 Any video Jasmine is in I already know I’ll laugh in. 😆

[chrisneyman]

This is the first time I've seen Jasmine cook and now I'm a huge fan!

[cheonsacher]

Black sesame is my favorite filling for Tangyuan... It looks so good 🥺 and I'm team hot broth but I like it both ways ✌🏻

[esterlisnati]

anything shaped round is cute - Rie 2021 and Jasmine cited it again in 2022. Good reminder Jasmine!
