Jujube steamed buns

Overview

There are many ways to make pasta, especially during the Chinese New Year. Every household will make flower steamed buns to increase the festive atmosphere of the New Year. Every Spring Festival, my mother will also make some pasta, but what I like to eat most are all kinds of fancy pasta made with red dates. The aroma of red dates can already be smelled during the steaming process. It feels so sweet.
