Guide to the steps and methods of making zongzi.

Production method:

Step 1: After washing the glutinous rice twice with clear water, soak it in clear water for one night in advance: soak the dried zongzi leaves in light salt water for 2-3 hours, and then wash them with a brush. Then cut off the dry leaves and hard petioles at the head and tail: clean the red dates for later use.

Step 2: "Ring: Ring into a cone" Take two zongzi leaves and arrange them face up. Pinch both ends with your hands to form a cone. It is best to make a small crease at the tip of the cone to avoid rice leakage during rice wrapping and cooking. Note that this cone is only as big as a zongzi. Not too big. ]

Step 3: "2 put: put stuffing" pinch the junction of four leaves with your left hand, put a little glutinous rice in your right hand, then put 3 or 4 red dates, and finally cover the glutinous rice and compact it with a spoon.

Step 4: The "3 Cover" holds the cone in its left hand and pinches the front end into a triangle with its thumb and forefinger. At this time, the right hand pinches the two corners of Zongzi with the thumb and forefinger and breaks off the leaves on it. Cover the glutinous rice tightly.

Step 5: When the redundant leaves on the top are folded down, release the thumb and forefinger of the left hand respectively, so that the upper leaves are pressed against the lower leaves. First flatten the two sides and fold them straight, and then dissect the extra leaves to the right (or left). At the same time, the left thumb helps to fix them. This way. Triangle will be very powerful.

Step 6:

Finally tie it with a rope. If you can't use your hands, you can use your teeth to help you bite tight.

Step 7: Put the wrapped zongzi into a steamer, then pour in clear water without zongzi and cover it with a basket. Bring the fire to a boil and simmer for 2 hours.

Step 8: After turning off the fire, let the zongzi soak for 23 hours, which will be sweeter and softer when taken out.
