I always ate rice dumplings made by my mother when I was a child. Now that I have a family, I have to learn to make these myself.
The Dragon Boat Festival must have a festive atmosphere and make rice dumplings to be like a festival.

Steps for zongzi

1
Soak the glutinous rice in cold water two days in advance
2
Soak the rice dumplings and horse lily in advance
3
I like to eat candied dates rice dumplings, so I bought candied dates
4
Boil the zongzi leaves with boiling water to make them soft, otherwise they will easily break when making zongzi
5
Bend the rice dumplings into such a funnel shape, with sharp points on the bottom, and try not to let the rice leak out
6
Put a candied jujube under it first to prevent the rice from leaking out from the tip. This is also a trick, haha, my mother told me
7
Put the rice in, then seal the mouth like origami, and wrap it as tightly as possible to prevent the rice from leaking out. If the wrap is loose, it will not taste good when cooked. Because I am in the bag, I don't have to take photos with my hands. Hehe, excuse me

A shaped rice dumpling came out. Isn't it very stylish, haha
9
Place the shaped rice dumplings into the pot in turn
10
Ready and ready to cook

In the first step, you must use cold water to soak rice, and change the water every night, because the weather is still relatively hot during the Dragon Boat Festival.
