Grandma’s Zongzi

Overview

This rice dumpling was made by my mother, but don’t underestimate how the recipe is simplified into a few steps. It took her a long time to wrap it, and it took a long time to cook it, and then she shared some with her children... I don’t know how hard it is to make, but I can make a rice dumpling in just a few minutes... Children like to eat the rice dumplings made by my grandma!
