Embracing the Season of Prosperity: The Tradition of Yusheng
While the lead-up to the Lunar New Year is often defined by the ritual of spring cleaning—tossing out the old to make room for the new—the arrival of the festival brings a much more celebratory kind of "tossing." Yusheng season is officially here, marking a time for family, friends, and colleagues to gather around the table for the iconic Lo Hei.
The Art of the Prosperity Toss
Yusheng, or the Prosperity Toss, is more than just an appetizer; it is a symbolic gesture of rising wealth and shared good fortune. As each ingredient is added to the platter, auspicious phrases are recited to welcome health, luck, and happiness. The higher the ingredients are tossed into the air, the greater the luck is said to be for the coming year. It is a vibrant, communal experience that captures the joyous spirit of the season.
