Tips:
The previous rice dumplings and Mi Ma used pressure cookers, but this time they used ordinary cooking pots, because a friend said that there is no electric pressure cooker at home. Besides, the brands are different and the procedures are different. This time Miyi was cooked in ordinary pots. The shape of the zongzi depends on the shape of the funnel on the one hand, and it also needs to be reshaped by hand. Be sure to squeeze your hands tightly before binding. There is no silk thread for this zongzi. You must pinch your hands tightly when wrapping it. In addition, you need to use a thick big nose needle for the needle, otherwise the reed leaves will be broken. Be gentle when you pull it out. This kind of wrapping method can only use reed leaves, and other leaves do not have sharp tips, so they cannot be wrapped like this.
