Making rice dumplings for the first time
When I was a child, I liked to eat rice dumplings best. At that time, all the rice dumplings I ate were sent by my parents 'colleagues and neighbors. Because my mother couldn't make rice dumplings, I had never seen anyone making rice dumplings. This time, on a whim, I wanted to make rice dumplings myself, but I was still drumming in my heart, afraid that the bag would leak out. Before I started cooking, I chatted with my husband and said that I had no confidence. My husband said,"Have you ever eaten rice dumplings? I've been eating for more than 30 years, and I've seen it all." So I asked him to give me a demonstration, but he refused to do it. I knew that although he had eaten rice dumplings for a few more years than me, he actually couldn't. I took out my mobile phone, went online, found the steps and methods of making rice dumplings, and followed them step by step. Finally, I was done.
