Mid-Autumn Festival divides round cake
The scent of tea is refreshing and the porch is bustling.
Mooncakes are associated with the legend of the fairy Hang Nga and Cuoi, who made special cakes to participate in the contest of the Jade Emperor and wished to be able to play together on earth on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, known as the Mid-Autumn Festival. Since then, the beauty of the cakes has been passed down through generations and become an indispensable part of the culture and beliefs of the Vietnamese people.
Mooncakes are not only a typical dish of every full moon festival but also have many cultural meanings, symbolizing fulfillment, completeness, solidarity and family love. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, families gather around the Mid-Autumn Festival tray, sharing traditional cakes. By making and enjoying Doan Vien cakes together, each family member feels the care, reunion and deep connection.

Moon cakes also symbolize prosperity and luck. It is believed that enjoying the cakes will bring luck and fortune to the family. There are two main types of moon cakes: baked cakes and sticky rice cakes, each with its own flavor and meaning. Baked cakes with a golden crust and rich mixed fillings are symbols of abundance and fullness. Sticky rice cakes, pure white, often with green bean or lotus fillings, represent the purity and close love of husband and wife. Regardless of the type, moon cakes always carry the meaning of fulfillment, symbolizing the fullness and fullness of life. Because of that meaning, every Mid-Autumn Festival, the cakes become a special gift to express affection and strengthen family ties.
The culture of enjoying tea and eating moon cakes is not only about taste but also about connection and sharing. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the full moon shines everywhere, the weather is cool in the autumn, besides the sweet moon cakes, a cup of warm tea with a gentle aroma is an indispensable element to balance the taste buds and create a relaxing, peaceful atmosphere.
The slight bitterness of the tea helps neutralize the sweet and fatty taste of the cake, creating a perfect balance, so that the person enjoying it does not get bored but also feels the delicious taste of each dish more clearly. The flavor of the tea will sublimate the flavor of the moon cake, making people remember the complete feeling when enjoying tea and cake forever. The astringent taste of the tea will neutralize the strong sweetness of the cake, and in the end, what remains is the sweet and fragrant taste of the cake and the sweet taste of the tea. This feeling also creates a surprising harmony with the wonderful emotions and memories with the family during the meaningful Reunion Tet.

The art of enjoying tea on the Mid-Autumn Festival night often begins with choosing the right tea. Each type of tea, from elegant lotus tea, fragrant jasmine tea, rich oolong tea, to refreshing green tea, brings different experiences when combined with mooncakes.
For mooncakes with rich mixed fillings, oolong tea or black tea is the ideal choice, because the bitterness of the tea helps to soften the sweet and fatty taste of the cake. Meanwhile, mooncakes with light sweet fillings should be combined with lotus tea or jasmine tea, creating a pure and gentle feeling. It is the harmonious combination of the sweetness of the cake and the slightly bitter taste of the tea that creates a wonderful culinary experience, enhancing the meaning of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The culture of enjoying tea and eating moon cakes is an indispensable part of the Mid-Autumn Festival, containing profound traditional values. The delicate combination of tea and cakes is not only about cuisine but also an expression of affection and reunion. In the context of modern society, when life is increasingly busy and everything becomes rushed, maintaining and promoting traditional cultural values such as enjoying tea and eating moon cakes becomes more important than ever. Maintaining and promoting this culture not only helps create a warm, peaceful space but also contributes to preserving the good cultural values of the Vietnamese people.
