Deep-fried Sesame Seed Ball – Jien Duy

I am concerned that there exists in Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) today a pervasive growing attitude of unteachableness, unaccountability, and a lack of submissiveness to the Word of God and the authority of the local church. It seems today that anyone who challenges the CCM industry as to its current practices and alliances according to the standard of God's Word is labeled as divisive, condemning, and unloving. While those that are constantly operating outside of the purview of God's Word are labeled as innovative, visionary, and kind? Tolerance is not a spiritual gift; it is the distinguishing mark of postmodernism; and sadly, it has permeated the very fiber of Christianity. Why is it that those who have no biblical convictions or theology to govern and direct their actions are tolerated and the standard or truth of God's Word rightly divided and applied is dismissed as extreme opinion or legalism?

		sticks-
		=OR=-
1/2	c	Dark brown sugar
1/2	c	Sweet red bean paste
1/2	c	Sesame seeds
		Peanut oil for deep-frying

INSTRUCTIONS

PLACE THE GLUTINOUS RICE POWDER in a mixing bowl. Bring the water to  a
boil and add the sugar; stir until completely dissolved. Pour sugar
water into the rice powder; stir until well mixed. Gather the dough
into a ball and knead until smooth. Cut dough in half and roll each
half into two 10-inch long rolls. Cut each roll into 10 pieces. Take
one piece and roll into a ball. Flatten it and place a 1/2-inch round
piece of sweet red paste into the center of dough. Fold over sides to
enclose filling and roll into a ball. Repeat until all the balls are
made. Wet your hands with water and roll one ball in your hands to
moisten the ball. Dip the ball into a dish of sesame seeds until the
entire surface is covered. Press lightly to help the seeds adhere.  Add
enough oil to a wok to a depth of 2 1/2-inches. Heat to 350F.  Deep fry
balls for 8 to 10 minutes. As they expand in the oil, take a  pair of
chopsticks and squeeze the balls to help them expand and fill  with
air. The balls should triple in size, float to the top of the  oil and
turn golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels. Makes  about 20
balls.  From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection at
