Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. Eating zongzi is the tradition of the Dragon Boat Festival. I believe many friends have wrapped or bought zongzi. When I was a child, at the Dragon Boat Festival, my mother would wrap a dozen catties of zongzi. One catty of glutinous rice can pack 5 zongzi. It seems a bit exaggerated to say it, but this is indeed true. There were not so many snacks more than 20 years ago. And breakfast variety, so my mother will make a lot of zongzi before the Dragon Boat Festival, as the family’s breakfast. The glutinous rice dumplings made by my mother are burned into ashes with straw, poured with boiling water, and the grey water is extracted and filtered, mixed with glutinous rice, peanuts and pork belly to make glutinous dumplings. Now the family no longer grows crops, and with the diversification of food, it is rare to eat rice dumplings on the Dragon Boat Festival by making it yourself. They buy some favorite flavors online and steam them to eat.
