Peanut Pork Zongzi
Overview
Dragon Boat Festival is my childhood favorite festival. Because of the rice dumplings, I can eat rice dumplings as the main food every day. The rice dumplings are made two days ago. Peanut meat rice dumplings are a must-make rice dumpling at my house because my husband loves meat rice dumplings. Of course, there is another reason. Most other people make bean paste rice dumplings, so we receive a lot of bean paste rice dumplings as gifts! Hehe. . . So it’s better for me to wrap meat
