The steps to make zongzi (a traditional Chinese food) are as follows:
1、Prepare the ingredients: You will need glutinous rice, bamboo leaves, and fillings such as beans, pork, eggs, or other ingredients you like.
2、Soak the rice: Soak the glutinous rice in water for several hours to soften it.
3、Prepare the bamboo leaves: Clean and soak the bamboo leaves in boiling water for a few minutes. This will make it easier to wrap the rice and fillings.
4、Mix the rice and fillings: Mix the soaked rice with seasonings like salt and oil. Then add the desired fillings and mix well.
5、Wrap the zongzi: Take two bamboo leaves and overlap them, then place a small amount of rice on one end. Add your fillings on top of the rice, then cover with more rice. Fold the bamboo leaves over the rice to cover it, and wrap tightly to seal.
6、Cook the zongzi: Place the wrapped zongzi in a large pot of boiling water. Make sure they are not too close together so they can cook evenly. Boil for about 3-4 hours, depending on the size of the zongzi.
7、Remove and serve: When they are cooked, remove from the water and let cool slightly before serving. Zongzi can be served warm or cold.
That's how you make zongzi! Enjoy this traditional Chinese food with your family and friends.
