Zongzi. It is a traditional holiday food of the Han people during the Dragon Boat Festival. It is made by steaming glutinous rice wrapped in zong leaves. The legend is passed down to commemorate Qu Yuan.
I have never packaged rice dumplings at home before. Today I was out for the Dragon Boat Festival for the first time, so I learned to package them by myself. "
