Compared with traditional zongzi, crystal zongzi is like a more charming and lovely lace doll!
Small, cute, crystal clear, more attractive to our eyes.
I've been thinking about trying since last year, and I didn't put it into action until this year. Although not perfect, it is more than enough to please children!
Candied cherries used for inset without adding color.
It was expected that the crystal-clear outer skin would set off the red cherries. Unexpectedly, things backfired. After the cherries were boiled, the color turned into yellow, which was far from red.
The honey-stained cherries made by yourself are healthier and more sweet! "
