It takes practice. Haha. The first time when I did it, don't even know how to start. I thought I will waste all ingredients. Refer to other people's video, some show a very clear instruction. 😊
Hello sister, I watched you Video More than 10times to review how to make it because I wanted to learn it from you. Thanks sister I will do my best to make this Dragon boat dumplings ❤️
We use charcoal to cook the zongzi. Our practice is to use the big metal tin can. If you cook a lot of quantity , just need to make sure to switch zongzi at the bottom with the top after few hours to ensure that all of them are cooked at the same time. Else the bottom one will cook faster than the top.
You are welcomed. It is easier to peel when it is hot. When you cut the shell, cut it a bit deeper so that when you put in microwave, it split more and easy to peel. This is my experience
It gives little sweetness but some people don't like it and therefore you can omit it. So people also use peanut but I personally don't like it. Hope this helps
I had never used that to do the rice dumpling. I don't know If you can wrap it up properly. In Malaysia, we used banana leaves to wrap up the rice but cook on BBQ. However it is totally different
My Iban friend in Sarawak wrap choong with broad pandan leaves Hainanese friends use banana leaves but in a different shape.They have five pointed ends.
Hi emilee, I noticed that you used dark soy sauce, what is the difference between all the different soy sauces? Is it just the colour or also the flavour?
Dark soy sauce normally for the colour. It is not very salty, therefore we add salt. With soy sauce, the colour is lighter and it is saltier and more flavour and one more common sauce is oyster sauce which I use a lot. This is to increase the flavour of a dish. Hope this clarifies.
Hi. I'm from Brazil 🇧🇷 and I've never seen a dish like this. here we cook a corn dough on the corn leaf. it can be salty or sweet. 😔 does not have the subtitles in Portuguese. 
Definitely. I did a chicken version for my colleague who doesn't eat pirk. We have vegetarian version too which people put mung bean, mushroom, red bean, chestnut and peanuts.
good job Emilee's in my country Iraq we make a Traditional food His name is (dolma) it's a very deilcious and if you want how to make it ‚ I'll writ it for you 😊

Follow The Good & Logical Tradition
There is no such in my country. It is delicious and beautiful looking
Thank you Emily! That’s a lovely video! I have got all the information needed! Especially the chestnut preparation!

Is it necessary to include chestnuts? Will it reduce the taste if not included? Cant find it here in our area
It gives little sweetness but some people don't like it and therefore you can omit it. So people also use peanut but I personally don't like it. Hope this helps
Thanks!
So nice 😋😋
Nawwww yummy I've always wanted to try this sticky rice😊

Hi. I'm from Brazil 🇧🇷 and I've never seen a dish like this. here we cook a corn dough on the corn leaf. it can be salty or sweet. 😔 does not have the subtitles in Portuguese.

I don't know why but this remind me of stuffed paprika xD

Yummy yummy yummy yummy 😋.. My favorite...
My whole family favourite too. 😊 So have to do few times a year but it takes time. Haha
@@emileeskitchen4912
Yes... I saw your video..... Its take to long preparation..
How many hours to soak the sticky rice
If you soak overnight, need to put in the fridge. Otherwise 4 hours
А у нас нет листьев бамбука, чем можно заменить?
those amount of oil majes my heart artery screaming haha
This is because of the pork belly we use. 😅😅 if it is replaced with chicken, or less fat pork, should be better.
But Less than a piece of fried chicken you would be surprised 😂
Thật là tuyệt vời ❤
Instead of pork can we put chicken
Definitely. I did a chicken version for my colleague who doesn't eat pirk. We have vegetarian version too which people put mung bean, mushroom, red bean, chestnut and peanuts.
3:43 good. you use proper string for cooking instead of toxic plastic raffia.
What kind of leaves you used?
It is bamboo leaves
Thanks
Do u hve to get rid of pork skin b4 cutting? Tq
No, you don't have to.
is banana leaves be possible a replacement for the unavailability of bamboo leaves in our place.?
I am sorry, no, banana leaves break easily.
Wow I like it here in Taiwan
สุดยอด❤❤❤
DONT HAVE SALTED EGG YOLK IN IT????
I cannot find salted egg here. Even if i find it here, very expensive. So.. economy type...
tuyệt vởi
why is it that when i soak the gluttonous rice, the rice becomes so stinky and wrenchy?🤧
Weather too hot and you did not put in the fridge and you put too long outside
@@emileeskitchen4912 ohhh icic, thank you so much!😅

All is ok...xcept the pork looks hard...😕
Yeet
It looked easy until you try to fold it in the leaves 😭😭😭😭😭
Hahaha. Yes... It is hard in the beginning. But later will be easy
