My Auntie Teaches Grandma's Sticky Rice Dumpling, Zongzi Recipe, Hokkien Bak Chang | 阿姨分享外婆的 粽子做法

Sticky rice dumplings are traditionally made during Dragon Boat Festival. In Cantonese dialect, these dumplings are called “Zong”, in Hokkien dialect, its called “Bak Chang” or in Chinese it’s called Zongzi “粽子”. These dumplings are made with glutinous rice filled with meat and other ingredients, wrapped in bamboo leaves and then boiled about 2 hours. You can also use a pressure cooker to reduce the cooking time.
My auntie who is also my Godmother was so kind to teach me my Grandma's recipe. She is the same aunt who taught me my popular Pandan Agar-agar Jelly. See link for Pandan Agar-agar Jelly recipe : • Pandan Agar-Agar Recip...

If its from a freezer must it still be boiled for that long

[@ruyiasianrecipes]

If you take from freezer you can place it in boiling water again for 10-15 minutes or you can steam it for 20-30 minutes or you can thaw it first then steam for 10-15 minutes

[@fartan1465]

It would be good if you could list out the ingredients in English below all your videos.

[@ruyiasianrecipes]

Hi I have updated the ingredients for the video in the description. Thank u for your patience.

[@Jtsh706]

How to prepare the mung bean?

[@ruyiasianrecipes]

hello, sorry instructions not clear in the video. Wash the mung beans until the water is clear, then soak for 2 hours. Don't need to cook.

[@Jtsh706]

@@ruyiasianrecipes OK. U need to add salt, oil to it?

[@ruyiasianrecipes]

@Jtsh706 hi don’t need to

[@Jtsh706]

​@@ruyiasianrecipes think most recipe seasoned it.

[@ajl8615]

I thought glutinous rice must soak for at least 4-6 hours before you fry in wok?

[@ruyiasianrecipes]

Hi there no fix method. If you prefer the rice to be softer you can soak longer. Also, you can soak longer and when you boil the dumpling you can reduce the time. But the filling will not be as soft as I like especially the meat. Hope this explains it. 😊

[@biibikiki1304]

粽子 not 种子

[@ruyiasianrecipes]

Yes typo 😅

[@vincenttang4975]

Your dumplings rice looks a little too wet not so compact

[@ruyiasianrecipes]

Hi noted. My aunt was trying to teach me and a lot of amateur people packing that day 😅

[@ruyiasianrecipes]

Please see my latest video released a few days ago thanks for feedback 😊
