The second trick is to put the zong leaves in the pot and cook for about half an hour. The boiled zong leaves are soft and easy to break but not easy to break.
The third trick is to add high-concentration white wine to the rice just one step before making the rice dumplings, which can make the rice dumplings mellow and not bad.
