My mum found a rare traditional Teochew kueh (bite-sized cake for snack/dessert), Png Kueh. Itโs been years since she has seen it anywhere in our progressive world and she is definitely elated and started telling me about her memories ๐ Itโs sad that traditions are slowly fading into obsolescence and I am glad that I still get to learn about traditions and history of our culture ๐๐ป๐ Png kueh is a unique though simple at the same time is a type of โsticky cakeโ due to its main outer body which is made of glutinous rice wrapping its inner filling composed of (usually) peanuts, dried shrimps and mushrooms. (This is probably easier found in our neighbouring country, Singapore but rarer here, especially in the capital city). I hope that traditions do not die or just disappear with the past as we progress towards the future, as they serve as reminders of the past and also a marker of how far we have come today. Most of all, they hold meanings and wonderful memories of our past and the lives of those who came before us. After all, what is our present and future without the past, right? ๐๐๐๐ป Have you seen/ tried this Teochew Png kueh before, or do you have any memories or stories about any traditional food that you noticed are getting rare/missed? ๐๐ #sharingstories #sharing #traditionalkueh #traditions #culture #Teochewkueh #TeochewPngKueh #PngKueh #traditionalfood #snacks #dessertfood #traditionalcake #Asianculture https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn0qLnEPpWi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
