Although shaved ice can be found even in fall and winter, douhua is a dessert that can be enjoyed year round in both hot and cold weather. Douhua is made from soy milk which is set by using coagulants such as gypsum or bittern. The resulting texture of douhua is soft and silky. It is often served with a sweet syrup and various toppings. Each shop selling douhua has many toppings for customers to choose from, such as peanuts, mesona jelly, tapioca balls, mung beans, adzuki beans and taro paste. 刨冰雖然秋冬也吃得到,但有什麼甜品冷暖皆宜,豆花是好選擇。豆花是在豆漿中拌入石膏、鹵水等促凝劑製成,白嫩絲滑,舀入糖水享用。每間豆花店還有許多種配料任君選擇,如花生、仙草凍、粉圓、綠豆、紅豆和芋泥等。 coagulant (n.) 促凝劑 gypsum (n.)

Art can be found almost everywhere on Earth. There are statues on mountaintops, sculptures beneath the sea and art exhibits held in the middle of deserts. A group of over 30,000 artists has recently come together to place their works in an entirely new location — the Moon. The project, named the Lunar Codex, is dividing pieces they’ve gathered into five collections. The first one, the Orion Collection, was already launched into space to orbit around the Moon in 2022 on NASA’s Orion spacecraft. The other four will be flown to different destinations on the Moon in future
