Zongzi are best eaten hot, so you should have heat it up first, preferably by steaming. Great video again, thanks for posting.

[@redusbani1118]

Nice video.

[@somgears1589]

我还在期待看到划船🚣！

[@kko-punch7059]

Hahaha. That was how clumsy i made the "Zhongji" when I was a kid! Thanks for bring back my childhood memories! What a fun video!!

[@LaLaLaLauran]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Chris-Gogo]

被你的笑容融化，真为你高兴能尽情去尝试中国的多样性的文化和生活，Enjoy！ 祝福

[@LaLaLaLauran]

谢谢

[@olezemin6658]

LaLaLaLauran, love this ending music ❤

[@dreammediax]

Looks fun!

[@lizhizhu858]

go to 长白山 in july

[@derek849]

I think u need to boil the zong zi first before u eat it? Unless your friend has boiled it already before giving it to you.

[@LaLaLaLauran]

Oh! Good thing I only ate the one my friend made 😯

[@LaLaLaLauran]

@user-eo4lk4cd2y I should have looked up instructions 🙈

[@elimlinrr6898]

I normally steam those I bought from the market before eating them. Put in the freezer up to one week.

[@ZLL668]

Lovely

[@AdventurousTrading]

Hi Lauran, the leaves used for the dumplings are Bamboo leaves. interesting video ;-)

[@LaLaLaLauran]

Cool!! Thanks

[@davidhlin3023]

I think you have to steam/microwave them again with the leaves on before you eat them. Oh, I see someone already mentioned this

粽子冷的不好吃，要煮了以后才好吃。

[@LaLaLaLauran]

Good advice, I'll try it next time

[@user-qb7pf8ju9w]

吃粽子可以先用微波炉热一下，我会放点白糖😋

[@weizhang2834]

Go to north east china in July or xinjiang province, the temperature there not much heat

[@Renge.]

Zongzi must be filled with meat to be delicious

[@wong2230]

No no no....肉粽子最不好吃。🤣

[@Renge.]

@@wong2230 😠

[@kinggodzilla7647]

Red bean dumplings should be served with syrup or granulated sugar.

[@hourui8858]

You and Alex should definitely plan a summer trip to the northern part of China, like province Heilongjiang , Jilin, Changbai Mountain, or City Dan dong or Ben Xi to stay away the heat.

[@alextjflorida]

I heard Guizhou is cooler than the cities you mentioned.

[@hourui8858]

@@alextjflorida no, no, no, Guizhou is hot, very hot! try North, east north

[@freedemo1115]

It's a pity that you didn't go to see the dragon boat race, which is the most important event of the Dragon Boat Festival. You can come to Guangdong Province to watch it next time.

[@LaLaLaLauran]

Next time, that would be so cool to see!

[@willengel2458]

the closest thing to Zhongji is Tamale in Mexico and a few South American countries.

[@CycOp]

The jerkiness you felt in your taxi ride is likely due to the regenerative braking of the fully electric cars (supposedly most if not all the taxis in China are fully electric). One common complaint against fully electric vehicles is the regenerative braking, as soon as you lift the acceleration pedal, the braking kicks in and recharges the battery. I’ve heard that some cars are worst than the others. Maybe you can ask the driver to make adjustment to less regenerative braking (some cars are adjustable and some are not).

[@LaLaLaLauran]

That sounds exactly like what I was experiencing! Yeah, I think I'm just very sensitive to it.

[@waltertian4167]

Heard about the horrible heat wave you're having in Beijing. Stay cool.

[@nehcooahnait7827]

I get car sick in taxis too… or any other cars honestly… occasionally on buses as well 🥲 funny cuz ⛴️ ferries never do that to me

[@LaLaLaLauran]

Same, I can do boats no problem

[@sangtong5550]

that is bamboo leaf .
