In the era when the sense of ritual of festivals is gradually disappearing, traditional festivals are no longer as lively as they used to be. Instead, they are festival gimmicks, eating, drinking and playing. On the Dragon Boat Festival, it is natural to eat rice dumplings.

Most of the things I had forgotten when I was young, so dull, I can be considered a capable person, haha, but when I was a few years old, I had the memory of zongzi. At that time, my family was at the end of the alley, and my neighbor was an expert in making zongzi. Freshly cooked rice dumplings are often delivered here. They are our traditional red date rice dumplings, which have a sweet and soft texture.

However, today's zongzi has developed to a refined state, and the fillings are not limited. Compared with southern rice dumplings, northern rice dumplings are much lighter. Although there are meat dumplings and egg yolk rice dumplings in the supermarket, the most popular ones are the traditional red date rice dumplings and candied date rice dumplings.

However, since I went to Jiaxing, I have fallen in love with meat dumplings. Every time I pass by the high-speed rest area, I unconsciously eat a few big meat dumplings and then pack them away. So, today I will pack two kinds of stuffing. Raw meat dumplings in the south, red dates dumplings in the north.

PS: Because I want to update the recipes while bringing the two babies, I often have less time to come here. If you are interested in communication, you can go to my WeChat public account: Kaka Food Diary (kaniuhome) Thank you for your love of my recipes, muah!
