    The method of making rice dumplings is different in every place. We usually have 3 leaves here, and then use two of them to make a funnel shape. Then put a layer of glutinous rice, another layer of stuffing, and cover it with a layer of glutinous rice. After all the fillings are put in, spread them with another zongzi leaf, fold the excess leaves on the bottom of the zongzi, and finally tie them tightly with water grass.
