"Sweet-scented osmanthus syrup is a sweet sauce made by simmering dried osmanthus flowers with sugar or honey. We often see it in traditional snacks like glutinous rice balls, mooncakes, and small pastries."
"The syrup not only emits an enticing fragrance but also has a golden, alluring color. It's particularly beautiful, with intact dried osmanthus flowers visible in it, making it especially liked by people when eaten."
"However, as good as sweet-scented osmanthus syrup is, we usually use it as a garnish."
"For example, when making glutinous rice balls, once they're cooked, you scoop them into a bowl, and then sprinkle a little osmanthus syrup on top. This makes the glutinous rice balls look even more tempting and delicious."
"Once the syrup meets the heat, the fragrance of osmanthus wafts through the bowl, making the rice balls smell more delightful and taste even better."
