Peanut Mung Bean Pork Ribs Zongzi

Overview

The Dragon Boat Festival is getting closer day by day, and the custom of eating rice dumplings is indispensable everywhere! During the Dragon Boat Festival in Wuhan, there is a custom of eating duck eggs, preserved eggs, rice dumplings, and mung bean cakes. After coming to Wuhan for many years, the Dragon Boat Festival in previous years was a symbolic way to eat rice dumplings sold in supermarkets. Not to mention the price is expensive and the taste is not good, so it is better to make them yourself. In the past few years, I have been making rice dumplings for myself, giving some to friends, and keeping the rest in the refrigerator. I can take them out and steam them when I want to eat them. In my hometown, Baiyangdian, people also make rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival, and eat fried cakes. The fried cakes filled with sticky dough and bean paste are the most delicious. Legend has it that the elderly and children will not fall down if they eat fried cakes on the Dragon Boat Festival. The rice dumplings are cooked with fresh reed leaves and then wrapped. They feel more delicious than the rice dumplings wrapped in rice dumpling leaves. This may be a matter of eating habits since childhood, and then there is the plot of homesickness. I miss the rice dumplings in my hometown very much, and miss the smell of glutinous rice and red dates wrapped in the faint reed fragrance... Children away from home miss the meals cooked by their mothers most, and various seasonal snacks. The rice dumplings were made yesterday. They were made with peanuts, mung beans and marinated pork ribs in the glutinous rice. The taste was not ordinary. The glutinous rice was mixed with peanuts and mung beans. When you took a bite, the delicious flavor of the meat filled your entire mouth. It didn't feel greasy at all. I ate two rice dumplings in one go.
